With rain showers and refreshments, the Golden Autumn is over this weekend – unfortunately in Carinthia, but also in South Tyrol with mudslides, storms and floods. Since Monday evening, the Wetterkapriolen is also in Styria.

It applies to the gesante Styria a warning from the Central Institute of Meteorology and Geodynamics (in Upper Styria applies Level of warning red storm!). The southern foehn, on the one hand, and the cold front on the march, on the other hand, lead to strong stormstorms. Monday was already the case during the day in the high mountains of Styria. Hochschwab already bursts with 170 km / h, in Johnsbach with 144 km / h or on the Planneralm 130 km / h measured.

Car accident due to fallen tree

From Monday evening, it was also hot in some valleys of Styria. Shortly before the cold front (climax according to Zamg meteorologist Friedrich Wölfelmaier between 22h and 2h) there were strong gusts of storm, especially in Upper Styria.

On the L104 between Mixnitz and Breitenau he came because of a fallen tree to a car accident, in the car sitting next to the driver, according to fire chief Andreas Kowatsch and two children. "Whether the tree that fell while driving on the car or the car that crashed into the fallen tree is still elevated," says the fire department. According to the Red Cross, a boy would have been brought with the ambulance to LKH Leoben with minor injuries (about 9 years old).

Gusts of about 100 km / h are possible in the lowlands until Tuesday morning, according to Wölfelmaier. In Niedere Tauern, Enns, Liesing and Paltental can even Gale up to 130 km / h happen. Disturbances in the early hours of traffic are likely to occur Tuesday, so (for example, because of fallen trees) not missing. Also during the day it remains stormy Tuesday. It is only in the afternoon that the weather should calm down.

The cold front also brings the High Styrians a lot of rain and perhaps thunder and lightning, but precipitation in northern Styria will not be problematic, as in Carinthia and East Tyrol, said the meteorologist. The snow will only whiten the highest peaks, temperatures will remain relatively mild.

That's how it goes on Tuesday

The depression over the Gulf of Genoa takes off happily Tuesday and is already in the afternoon on the Benelux. Therefore, in Styria you can expect sunny days. Most hours of sunshine should converge in the south and east of Styria. It is only in the high Murtal that the clouds remain for the moment quite dense and that it may rain here for a while. In short, the time is quite variable. One can expect it to be lively, not only in the north of Upper Styria and on the mountains and by the stormy south wind. "The wind is definitely the biggest problem and can still cause storm damage locally," warns meteorological expert Werner Troger. In the southeast, maximum temperatures reach 20 degrees. More to the west, it is much cooler. For example, in Murau, it is a little over 10 degrees (maximum).
