Further large increase in fresh snow in sight in the northern Alps
After there was a lot of fresh snow in the northern Alps from around 600 to 800 meters, especially on Friday and Saturday, new snow is being added in batches this week. A lot of snow will fall again in the northern Alps, especially on Tuesday night and on Tuesday and Thursday. In addition, the last days of the meteorological fall are very cold.

The stuff winter dreams are made of
When snowflakes trickle down from the sky, children and winter sports enthusiasts are happy. Snow is generally less popular with drivers. Snow transforms the landscape and appears peaceful, but this form of precipitation has a lot to offer. Snow crystals are the basis, and each one is unique.

Lots of fresh snow in the Northern Alps
From Friday until well into the coming week, the Alpine region will be subject to a strong northerly current, with the jet stream running right over the Alps. This northerly current will bring cold and intermittently moist air to the north side of the Alps and accumulate on the mountains. This will result in considerable amounts of fresh snow over several days!

Frost – Climatology and different characteristics
Next night, many places in the Swiss Plateau will see frost for the first time this fall. How does this compare with previous years or the climate norm and when was the earliest frost recorded since measurements began? These questions and more information about the frost can be found in the following MeteoBlog.

Around the first snow in the lowlands
When is the earliest date for the first measurable snowfall in some large cities in the lowlands and in the deep Alpine valleys? When does the first snow fall on average? And how does it look like this year and in the future? Find out more below.

Next very mixed week in November
November is known as a moody month and has lived up to its name so far. What has been largely absent so far is high pressure. There are no signs of a prolonged period of fine weather this week either, although there will be high pressure weather on Thursday. However, this will result in the first widespread air frost in the Swiss Plateau on Thursday morning. The high pressure won't last long, however, and the coming weekend will see largely low-pressure conditions again.

Lots of clouds, sun only in between
A lot of fresh snow will fall on the mountains today, with strong northerly foehn winds in the south. During the night and tomorrow morning, an intermediate high will have a temporary effect, then the next fronts will follow. So there can still be no talk of calmer and more stable late fall weather...

Storm Frederico
After the large amounts of precipitation over the last few days, the focus is now temporarily shifting to the wind. On Friday night, a small storm depression will move eastwards over France and Germany. After that, our weather will remain dynamic and dominated by low pressure.

Much too wet first half of November in the north!
The first half of November was far too wet in the north and too dry in the south. Temperatures were roughly normal, with no frost at all in many places in the Swiss Plateau. In the west, the sun hardly ever shone. Finally, it was often windy and even stormy at high altitudes. Below is the interim report.

Heavy rain, especially on Tuesday!
After yesterday's warm front, temperatures have risen significantly in the past few hours. The new week will therefore start relatively mild, but will continue to be very cloudy. On Tuesday in particular, a disturbance lying across northern Switzerland will cause large amounts of precipitation. In combination with a high snow line, the runoff levels will rise significantly! From Wednesday onwards, the weather will gradually calm down without becoming stable in the long term.
