Czechia is set to experience a drop in temperatures next week, with the possibility of snow, even at lower altitudes, for the first time this season.

Meteorologists warn that the pleasant autumn weather we’ve enjoyed recently will soon be replaced by a cold front sweeping in from the north.

So far, the second half of October has been relatively mild, with comfortable autumn temperatures. However, according to meteorologists, cold air will begin flowing into Central Europe, significantly lowering temperatures.

“The snowfall limit could drop rapidly from the current 3,000 meters to just 300 meters,” meteorologists from the Weather portal predict. This means that snowfall could occur at lower elevations for the first time in the 2024/2025 season. Until now, snow has only been seen in the mountains.

However, there’s no need to worry about heavy snowfalls just yet.

“The 300-meter limit is an extreme scenario for now. While it will get cold, a sudden snowstorm is unlikely,” meteorologists caution. They further add that a notable cooling is “relatively certain” between October 27 and November 10.

A similar forecast has been issued by the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (ČHMÚ).

They explain that a high-pressure system will move eastward early next week, and the weather in Central Europe will then be influenced by a low-pressure trough associated with a deep low-pressure area over Scandinavia. As a result, colder air will begin to flow into the region from the north.

From next week, expect cloudy skies and the potential for rain or showers in some areas. According to the ČHMÚ, the average daily temperature will drop to 13°C on Monday, fall to 10°C by Tuesday, and reach just 6°C by Wednesday.

Temperatures are expected to continue dropping throughout the week.
