The first heat wave of this summer is reaching its peak. Almost 30 degrees were measured in Freistadt in the morning. And it’s getting even hotter: According to the Geosphere Austria forecast, 36 degrees are even possible during the day. The risk of severe weather has not been averted: cumulus clouds that form in the followingnoon can result in individual downpours or thunderstorms.

Upper Austria was largely spared the day before. Carinthia and Styria were particularly affected, where a violent hailstorm caused severe damage. “We observe what is happening every two hours, it is difficult to make a clear forecast here due to the unstable air layers,” said Geosphere meteorologist Christian Resch in the OÖN interview.
