According to HungaroMet, the cyclone’s edge that was formed above Germany and Austria arrived with strong winds. In a post yesterday, they predicted 30-60 km/h breezes, but in Békés and Csongrád-Csanád counties, their speed may reach 70-90 km/h. For today, they forecast windy and cloudy weather with lots of precipitation. They added that mainly in the northern and northeastern parts of the country, it will fall in the form of snow. The biggest amount of snow is expected in the Mátra and Bükk mountains.
According to their morning report, it snowed in the Transdanubian Mountains, Budapest, and the North Hungarian Mountains, while rain and sleet dominated the Kisalföld region and the southern counties. A thicker layer of snow can be found in the higher areas of the northern and northeastern regions.
