Bye bye birdie Posted October 7, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I know we can never know what the weather will do; but the forecast for next week does not look good at all! Rain, snow, cloudy.. We have trip cancellation insurance. Is anyone in this area at present that can give a better picture of the weather. On map it looks like rain should push through??, but report states rain every day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On map it looks like rain should push through??, but report states rain every day Rain, snow and cloudy, sounds like Europe in the fall. It is not a Caribbean cruise, so, I think the weather you are talking about sounds a lot better than hotter than hades summer weather that people experienced this summer. Wear layers, have some waterproof gear and shoes, and enjoy the beautiful cities. jc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldwingers Posted October 7, 2015 #4 Share Posted October 7, 2015 In Vienna today. It was drizzly till about 2 pm, then just gloomy & humid. Cool but ok with a long sleeve shirt & rain jacket. First rain we have seen in over 2 weeks. Expect to have to wear a fleece under the raincoat next week. I like a waterPROOF coat with hood much better than an umbrella for running around sightseeing. Much easier to maneuver. Just think layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare notamermaid Posted October 8, 2015 #7 Share Posted October 8, 2015 The temperature is still in the tens (degrees) everyday in Germany with few clouds and little rain. The Rhine area is very pleasant. However, the Danube area in general is a little cooler in Germany and Austria compared to the Rhine. Next week will see lower temperatures and more rain. Snow is mentioned probably because it could snow in the hills. But depending on what website you have checked this, the lower Alps are included in the forecast. The Danube valley is unlikely to have snow. There could be the first frost of the season early in the morning. The weather for next week is classified officially as unsettled, but getting milder again towards next weekend. Bring layers of clothing and if you are uncomfortable in the cold gloves are possibly in order for morning excursions. Then lean back and enjoy the beautiful autumn colours. :) notamermaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threw my silk long johns in and ready to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought ballet slippers too but it was the Leather Flip Flops that went on with the cute Chico's or Talbots pants. Our trip was cool and Fleece ruled (along with sandals) ;) Enjoy your trip!

blueslegend Posted October 8, 2015 #11 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I always take my "Water Shoes" - sometimes call "Beach Socks". Hard rubber soles (good traction wet or dry) and elastic cloth tops made to get wet. I even use them for quick trips out in the snow here in Minnesota because they slip on and off so quickly.
