Europe’s weather is currently a mix of a cold, wet northwest and a warm, dry southeast, with the Alps seeing early snow and the Mediterranean coast experiencing above-average temperatures. As shown in the live forecast above, the contrast between these regions will be the main story over the coming days.
What is the weather in Europe like right now?
A strong high-pressure system over central and eastern Europe is bringing settled, sunny conditions to places like Greece and Turkey, while a series of low-pressure systems are hitting the UK, Ireland, and Scandinavia with rain and gusty winds. The divide will persist for the next week, with the southeast staying warm and the northwest remaining unsettled.

How does the weather vary across Europe?
Europe’s weather is highly regional due to its varied geography. The Mediterranean south remains warm into autumn, with daytime highs often reaching 20-25°C. Central Europe, including Munich, experiences a rapid transition to cool, crisp autumn weather. Northern Europe is already seeing frosty mornings and shorter days. The Alps are currently receiving significant snowfall at higher elevations, which is early but not unprecedented for this time of year.
