Frost and Arctic Air Are Back: What to Expect in Czechia This Week

This week, the Czech Republic will face a wave of cold Arctic air sweeping in from the north and northeast.

As a result, expect frosty nights, daytime chill, and even snow in some regions. While the cold will gradually ease starting Tuesday, the beginning of the week will bring freezing temperatures and danger to vegetation, especially flowering fruit trees.

On Monday, expect mostly cloudy to overcast skies on Monday, with partly cloudy conditions possible in Bohemia early in the day. In the northeastern half of the country, snow showers may occur—especially in mountain regions. In areas below 500 meters, rain or mixed precipitation is possible.

Tuesday brings cloudy skies, with rain or showers in some places and snow above 600 meters. However, both precipitation and cloud cover should begin to decrease by the evening.

Night temperatures will range from 0°C to 4°C, dipping to -2°C in calmer areas. Daytime highs will rise to between 8°C and 12°C.

On Wednesday, skies will remain cloudy to partly cloudy, with occasional showers in the northeast and snow above 600 meters early in the day.

Snow will continue on Thursday in elevations above 600 meters, while the rest of the country can expect rain and showers. The sky will be mostly cloudy, with brief periods of sunshine and partly cloudy conditions.

From Friday through Sunday, the weather is expected to remain cloudy to overcast, with intermittent rain or showers.

Night temperatures should remain above freezing, between 1°C and 6°C. During the day, temperatures will range from 11°C to 16°C, though the weather will not yet feel like true spring.
