Summer came early to central and eastern Europe as unseasonally-high temperatures were recorded on Saturday in several parts of Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic. 

Austria's ZAMG meteorological centre reported a record 32 Celsius in the northern region of Lower Austria.

Temperatures hovering around 28 Celsius in Vienna drew large crowds to the banks of the Danube while Germany's Bild carried front-page pictures of Berlin residents sunbathing in 30 degrees. 

Prague experienced its hottest April 28 in 212 years, with mercury hitting 27.7 Celsius while unusually-high temperatures were also recorded in Poland and Slovakia.

The meteorological centre said the main reason for the summer weather gracing the region was a strong southern wind from Africa's Sahara desert.
