Schaan, Liechtenstein’s largest municipality just north of the capital, shares the same Alpine climate along the Rhine valley, receiving substantial rainfall concentrated in summer convective storms that build over the surrounding mountains most afternoons during the warmer months. The valley’s flat floor, flanked by steep peaks on both sides, means water drains quickly off the slopes and can raise the Rhine’s level rapidly during sustained heavy rain. Because mountain-valley weather here can change within the hour, radar tracking is a genuinely practical everyday tool during the summer storm season, drawing on neighboring Swiss and Austrian radar coverage.
