Austria is experiencing a heatwave, with temperatures soaring to 35 degrees Celsius this week.

The warm weather is expected to continue, especially on Wednesday, when every state may see highs above 30 degrees.

However, the heat will be accompanied by a risk of thunderstorms, particularly in the mountainous regions.

A cold front is set to bring showers and severe thunderstorms across the country on Sunday, with warnings issued for heavy rain, hail, and strong winds in several states.

As the week progresses, temperatures will slightly drop but remain at summer levels, with another warm spell anticipated by Sunday.
