November 3, 2026 at 01:37 PM

> The American weather model predicts a major cold snap and heavy snowfall across Austria starting November 10 with record low temperatures.

The **American weather model** predicts a significant onset of winter across **Austria** starting November 10. Current data suggests a possible easterly situation could transport icy continental air from **Northeast Europe** directly into the **Central European region**.

Calculations for the nights around November 15 are particularly notable, with forecasts showing minimum temperatures of minus 15 degrees Celsius. **Western Austria** could see up to half a meter of snow, which favors strong cooling at night under clear skies.

While the American model indicates a severe cold snap, other weather models currently calculate significantly milder temperatures. These forecasts extend two weeks into the future, leaving uncertainty regarding the final intensity of this winter weather shift.
