Weather
Austria falls within the central European climatic zone, though the eastern part of the country where Vienna is situated has a Continental Pannonian climate, characterised by a temperatures in July of above 19°C (66°F) and annual rainfall usually under 800mm.
July and August can be very hot and winter is surprisingly cold, especially in January. May and August tend to be the wettest months. Damp maritime winds sometimes sweep in from the west, and it is not uncommon for the Föhn, a warm wind from the south, to make its presence felt the entire year.
