Weather & wind by day

Per day the most likely wind level and its probability – plus weather, temperature, rain and the strongest wind at the best time of day. The coloured bar in each tile shows how the chances split across the levels.

Wind levels (mean wind or gust):
None below 6 kn · Light 6–10 kn mean wind · Windy from 11 kn mean wind or gust 20 kn · Big from 14 kn mean wind or gust 25 kn

Wind over time

Hourly – mean and gust wind coloured by strength (local scale), plus the forecast of the key drivers. Two days side by side at full width, otherwise stacked; on mobile each day as rows.

Wind forecast & history

Solid lines are the forecast: mean wind (red) and gusts (anthracite), each with its spread. Once available, the measured values are added in the same colours but dashed. Use the arrows (day/month/year) to page through the days and compare forecast against reality. In knots (kn).

The drivers behind the forecast

The most important inputs of our model for this spot – the same window as the history above. This shows which weather situation is behind the forecast (and, when paging, behind past days).

Ora & Pelér driver (pressure gradient)

Pressure difference Po plain−Bolzano (Ghedi−Bolzano) – the most important driver for BOTH winds. Positive (green, top): higher pressure in the Po plain, the air flows up the lake – Ora (south, afternoon). Negative (blue, bottom): higher pressure to the north, the air flows down the lake – Pelér (north, night/morning). The dashed lines show from when it usually carries; they apply to this scale – other charts reduce pressure to sea level differently and differ by about one hPa.

Pelér driver: northerly situation (Innsbruck−Bolzano)

Pressure difference Innsbruck−Bolzano across the main Alpine crest: higher pressure to the north (blue, top) supports the night-time Pelér; if the difference is large and the air flows strongly from the north across the Alps, north foehn can develop. Higher pressure to the south (grey, bottom) takes away the Pelér's drive.

Ora driver: sun in the mountains

Solar radiation in the mountains north of the lake (Adige valley/Trento). The sun heats the valleys there more than the Po plain – this creates the pressure difference that drives the Ora. If it is cloudy there at midday, the Ora breaks down.
