Swiss Travel Plans: Weather-Based Decision Making

Today, we planned a few trips for this week. As mentioned in one of my earlier posts, our travel goals include Oeschinensee, Jungfraujoch, and Morcote. These travel destinations are all still on the table.

We’ve set Jungfraujoch for this coming Thursday, but at the suggestion of my cousin, we’re also considering a visit to Davos, to stay there for a night. We’ve heard that visiting Davos would be an unforgettable experience. While I’m delighted with all the options suggested by my cousin, I realize that there are simply too many compelling destinations in Switzerland. Therefore, we’ll need to make choices based on the best weather conditions for this week and the coming week.

I’ve come to understand that SRF Meteo is an essential weather forecast service for figuring out if the weather conditions are suitable for all the suggested travel destinations. It entirely escaped my attention that the weather would be such a decisive factor in choosing when and where to visit different places in Switzerland.

As it turns out, tomorrow we’ll be avoiding a rainy and cloudy day by driving to Lausanne. We plan to cross over the lake by boat from Ouchy to Evian-les-Bains or take a boat tour from Ouchy to Montreux, enjoying the stunning views of Lac Léman. This wasn’t part of our initial plan, but a last-minute decision while checking the weather forecast today.

Essentially, we’re trying to make the best choices based on the current weather conditions. It’s not an easy feat to achieve, but we’re doing our best.
