On Friday, people in Austria woke up to a foggy day that quickly turned into an unexpectedly sunny day with mild temperatures. Still, the country's weather is about to change, Austria's meteorologic institute ZAMG said.

Saturday should still have some periods of sunshine, especially in the eastern half of the country - perfect for those who will take part in the Viennese Wine Hiking Day (Wiener Weinwandertag), as temperatures should stay around 15C to 18C during the day.
