Austrian weather Early winter has hit us.
The slopes have opened in November already. It is going to be an excellent
winter season for winter sports afficionados. But in the city, too, the

they profit from the wintery atmosphere! If you are planning to travel to
Austria this winter, we would still recommend that you come prepared for
very cold weather. The weather in Austria is particularly changeable and the
wind, especially in Vienna can be bitterly cold!...

(which though is fairly high), with a bunch of more economic options for
longer-term tickets (3 days to 1 year).
