The most common wind on Lake Constance. It comes with the large-scale weather pattern and reaches all spots. On the Untersee at Steckborn it is often stronger in the narrow valley than on the Obersee.
The Bise is often strong on Lake Constance. At Rohrspitz it tends to come from north to northeast, at Konstanz and Steckborn as far as east. At Steckborn you have to get through about 100 m of wind shadow at the shore.
Foehn comes through the Rhine valley and mainly reaches Lindau and Rohrspitz, often strong and gusty. At Friedrichshafen it arrives only weakly, at Konstanz and Güttingen not at all. At Steckborn the wind blows from the west during foehn situations.
Without foehn, a south wind from the Rhine valley often blows at Lindau in the morning. It is strongest around 9 am.
After thunderstorms with dry air near the ground, cold air from southwest to west often arrives at Güttingen in summer. We have measured only a few such days, so this is uncertain.
