The days of calm autumn weather are ending; the high-pressure system that has been dominating the weather so far is moving away, making way for powerful Atlantic low-pressure systems.

On Thursday, there are three low-pressure systems visible on the radar. Whilst stormy conditions are expected in southern Spain and the Balearic Islands, heavy rain is set to fall from southern France to northern Italy. At the same time, polar air from the North Sea is heading towards Central Europe.

This means that, as the weekend approaches, heavy snowfall is also on the cards in the higher elevations of the Alps, in addition to storms and rain. Keep an eye on the situation on the WeatherRadar.
