The details: On Easter Monday the sun often shines again in the west and south-west. Otherwise, sunny phases will be increasingly replaced by increasingly dense cloud cover and then a few rain showers will fall, especially along the north side of the Alps from the Eisenwurzen to the Wechsel and in the Waldviertel. The snow line varies between 900 and 1,300 meters above sea level. The wind blows weak to moderate, brisk in the south-east, from north-west to north-east. The early temperatures are between minus and plus five degrees, in the afternoon it has a maximum of eight to 16 degrees.

During the first half of the day, the sun will occasionally appear in the west and south-west. Then the clouds will become denser and a few rain showers are to be expected. In the rest of Austria the sky is often overcast all day and it rains at least at times. The snow line varies between 500 and 700 meters above sea level in the east and is 1,700 meters above sea level in the west.

The wind will be weak to moderate, in the northern foothills of the Alps sometimes brisk from the east to south-east.
