In western Hungary, mostly cloudy or overcast skies with rain and showers are expected in many areas. Further east, cumulus and high clouds will allow for several hours of sunshine, and in addition to showers, thunderstorms may also develop, some of which may be accompanied by heavy downpours.
In Transdanubia (western Hungary), the north-northwesterly wind will be brisk, at times strong, and thunderstorms may bring intense, stormy gusts as well. Daytime highs will range from 14 to 19 degrees Celsius in the cloudy, rainy west, and between 20 and 25 degrees in the sunnier eastern regions.

Cloudy weather is expected in the west, while the east may see plenty of sunshine; later, clouds will decrease from the north across the country.
Rain and showers are likely in many places, with thunderstorms possible in southern and southeastern regions. In the second half of the day, the chance of precipitation will decrease. The north-to-northeast wind will bring strong, occasionally stormy gusts across a wide area. Morning lows will be between 8 and 13 degrees, while afternoon highs will range from 15 to 23 degrees, with the southeast being the warmest.
