In the mountains it cools notably, in the lowlands, on the other hand, when the west winds cool down to 12 degrees, it is somewhat milder than before, since here the cold air of the investment situation is cleared. “In such situations, meteorologists also speak of a masked cold front, as cooling only takes place at high altitudes,” says Ubimet meteorologist Manfred Spatzierer.

November clearly too warm so far
In much of Central Europe, November has so far been characterized by an unusually high number of high pressure situations with sunny, temperate weather in the mountains and heavy fog in the lowlands. “The first half of November in the mountains was more than 5 degrees warmer than the climatological average,” analyzes Spatzierer. In the lowlands, on the other hand, the deviations are mainly between 1 and 2 degrees due to the frequent reversal climatic conditions, especially in the Murtal the month was even locally average.
The first half of the month was also too dry, in much of the country there was less than 10 percent of the usual rainfall. In places like Hochpustertal or Nauders, there was still no measurable rainfall.
