the essentials in brief
- Strong foehn again this Monday

- Changeable westerly wind weather from Thursday
General situation
On Monday a low will move from Spain via France towards Belgium. At the front we come into a strong southerly current. The foehn will end again on Tuesday as a cold front crosses Switzerland. We will remain in a changeable and windy westerly current until the weekend. New fronts reach us almost every day.
Strong to stormy foehn
As the day progresses, foehn winds increasingly appear in the Alps. Gusts of 70 to 90 km/h must be expected in the Alpine valleys. In isolated cases, such as in the Haslital, Engelbergertal and the Uri Reusstal, gusts of up to 100 km/h are also possible. There are sometimes hurricane-force winds on the summits. The foehn storm reaches its peak on Monday evening and largely subsides on Tuesday night.
Legend:
The foehn is likely to cause strong waves again on Lake Uri.

Heavy rain in the west and south
On the southern side of the Alps the clouds will thicken on Monday. Some rain is already falling, but the amounts are still small. The rainfall will increase on Tuesday night and it will also rain heavily in western Switzerland. During the day, the cold front crosses Switzerland relatively quickly and brings widespread rain.
Legend:
It is cloudy on the southern side of the Alps. However, the amount of rain remains significantly smaller than last week.
Benjamin Hohl
Already on Tuesday afternoon the clouds are clearing up again from the west. Intermittent precipitation will continue to fall in the central and eastern Alps until Wednesday morning. The snowfall limit will drop to around 2000 m by Wednesday. However, the expected amounts of precipitation are significantly lower than last Friday. Overall, 30 to 60 mm of rain is likely to fall in the south, in the Geneva region, in Chablais and in the Vaud Jura, and 5 to 30 mm in the other areas.
