This is what the weather will be like on election Sunday

For the eastern Alpine region, Geosphere Austria predicts high pressure influence in a northwesterly flow, which initially causes dense clouds and light precipitation along the northern side of the Alps, which subsides during the day.

Otherwise, the day of the National Council election will be sunny, at times cloudy with cumulus clouds. It is doubtful that the weather has a significant impact on voter turnout. This is what political consultant Thomas Hofer thinks, for example. “This influence is somewhat overestimated,” he said in an interview. Dealing with elections is now far more pragmatic than it was decades ago, especially in times of postal voting. Hofer believes that those people who don’t vote because of the weather usually wouldn’t do so anyway. This time, however, the areas affected by flooding could be an exception. Some people there currently have “other worries”.

Especially in the northern part of the Alps as well as in East Tyrol and Upper Carinthia, it often rains when the snow line drops between 1,700 and 2,000 meters above sea level. A few rain showers can still fall everywhere else. The sun only appears a little, more often in the flatlands of the east and in the southeast.
