METEO

Over the Whitsun weekend, Switzerland will lie on the front of a low pressure system with a core over the Bay of Biscay, which will be particularly pronounced at high altitudes. It will steer mild and, especially on Saturday afternoon and evening, more humid and unstable stratified air masses from the south-west towards the Alpine region. On Sunday, somewhat drier air with less tendency to showers will flow behind it.
