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 repeated gusts ≥ 20 kn · Big from 14 kn mean wind or repeated gusts ≥ 25 kn (a single gust doesn't make a wind day)

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).

Thermal drive

The valley wind lives off the sun: it heats the valley and the pressure difference Munich→Innsbruck draws the air up-valley. Both high = strong afternoon valley wind.

Höhenwind 850 hPa (Stärke + Richtung)

Der Höhenwind in ~1,5 km (850 hPa) kann die Thermik stützen oder überdecken – entscheidend ist die RICHTUNG (rechte Kompass-Achse): Nord stützt den Talwind, Süd (Föhnlage) blockiert ihn.

Luftschichtung Tal↔Höhe

Die Schichtung Tal↔Höhe zeigt, ob warme Luft aufsteigen kann: negativ/klein = labil (gut), groß = stabiler Deckel (dämpft die Thermik).

Foehn

A foehn pressure gradient Bolzano−Innsbruck brings downslope wind over the Kesselberg into the Walchensee valley. At the Walchensee it is only a supporting act, though: the wind chance rises noticeably only above about +5 hPa (dashed line). Around or below the zero line (blue) means a northerly regime, no foehn. Other foehn charts reduce pressure to sea level differently and read several hPa higher – the threshold applies to this scale only.
