WeatherBlog 21 2019/20 | Strange, sunny end to the season

The WeatherBlog says goodbye to the summer break

by Lea Hartl 04/08/2020
To cut a long story short, the weather will remain as it is for the time being. There will only be a change in the next few days in the form of a few spring clouds. In the north there may be - how exciting! - there might even be a shower at the weekend.

The New Zealand Prime Minister recently declared that the Easter Bunny is systemically relevant and will therefore carry out its activities as usual. Unfortunately, the local authorities have not yet provided any information on this, but we'll just assume that this also applies here and wish you lots of fun with the socially distanced Easter egg hunt. The weather is unlikely to cause any significant problems. To be on the safe side, we recommend not placing chocolate eggs directly in the sun.

An extensive area of high pressure, which currently lies over western and central Europe, is responsible for plenty of sunshine and mild temperatures. The high-pressure influence will remain with us for the time being. It will be weakest in the north-east, where more spring clouds and perhaps the occasional shower will form over the next few days. The overall situation will not change much over the Easter weekend either, it will just become a little more unstable (= more cumulus clouds, higher shower potential). From today's perspective, Easter Monday in the Eastern Alps looks a little cloudier than recently, but in the forecast it will quickly become sunny again.

Sufficient rain to alleviate the drought that is currently prevailing almost everywhere is currently not in sight. The dry soil is causing problems for agriculture and the risk of forest fires is also increasing. An embankment fire on the Brenner highway has already caused a major fire department operation there. The conditions for sunbathing on the balcony are and remain good.

What else is there to report? The WeatherBlog is bored in the home office while being grateful for the privilege of comfortable boredom in times of crisis. As usual, we follow the Facebook messages and blogs of the state weather services. The statement below from ZAMG captures the mood well. Apart from that, ZAMG, like many other agencies, reports that the seismic "unrest" has decreased due to the anti-corona measures. Cars, trucks, but also pedestrians cause vibrations that can be clearly "heard" with seismic measuring devices. Since there is less going on now, there are fewer and only smaller tremors.

In the MeteoSwiss blog, on the other hand, the weather report was surprisingly turned into a highly exciting crime story today. We congratulate the colleagues responsible for realizing their creative passions.

Other than that, the WeatherBlog is currently encountering more and more strange conspiracy theories on its forays into the Internet, on the one hand, and bewilderment in the face of conspiracy theories, on the other. In the WeatherBlog's Twitter bubble, climate scientists are giving tips to newly confronted specialist groups on how to deal with a highly polarized public discourse and the associated media interest. Distraction is provided by something.

The WeatherBlog thanks readers for their attention and looks forward to seeing you again in the fall (and hopefully a return to normality soon).

Stay healthy and patient, enjoy the sun. The next winter is sure to come.
