Let It Snow! Krkonoše and Ore Mountains See First Flakes

As predicted, meteorologists’ expectations were confirmed on Wednesday, with the season’s first snowfall reaching lower altitudes across Bohemia.

Snowflakes were observed across the Krkonoše and Ore Mountains, extending into the Brdy Mountains.

While lowland areas are not expected to retain snow due to temperatures hovering above freezing, conditions differ in higher altitudes. In mountainous areas above 1,000 meters, temperatures are forecasted to remain below zero, allowing the snow to settle.

By afternoon, the Krkonoše Mountains recorded around four centimeters of snow, marking a notable seasonal shift.

Live footage from the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute’s webcams displayed fresh snow and continued snowfall across popular mountain areas, including Krkonoše resorts, Jizerka, Klínovec, Brdy, and Rožmitál pod Třemšínem.

A mix of rain and snow was also seen in the Elbe region.

Some snow briefly accumulated on supercooled surfaces—like car hoods—but generally melted upon hitting the ground.
