2017-01-20 ws For the next days still cold but sunny winter weather is expected. Temperatures range from -8°C (locally less than -10°C) during night time to 0°C at noon. There are almost no clouds and bright sunshine is expected. There won't be any snowfall. The snow cover in the Jura-Region ranges between 20 cm in the lower areas and surpasses more than 70 cm in shielded areas. Typically the snow is now more dense and packed. Wind blows mostly from south with an average speed about between 10-15 km/h. For non-insulated buildings these weather conditions may be the reason for a higher energy demand. A typical non-insulated single-family house may consumed between 20-40 Nm3 of natural gas (150 m2 net floor space).

Since the Thursday night (following the storm "Egon") some heavy snowfall began resulting in more than 20 cm snow coverage on average. In higher regions more than 50 cm of new snow were measured. However, the Jura mountains are not concerned with the danger of avalanches. Attention must be paid to wind slap the vicinity of rock edges. For the next days declining snowfall is predicted accompanied with dropping temperatures in the range of -12°C (minimum at night) and +/- 0°C (maximum at day). Cloudiness will decrease as well.
