Rain this week in Switzerland!!!!

We are leaving to switzerland this week for a one-week vacation, and I just checked weather report. Looks like its raining everyplace that we are going to (Bern, Luzern, BO) until Friday!
Changing our itinerary might be a hassle (hotels are already booked)Please help on rainy weather options... Thank you!

Their weather forecasts aren't any more reliable than ours! Besides, chances are it will rain only sporadically, not all day. Just take your rain gear and be prepared. Switzerland in the rain is still better than almost anyplace else in the sunshine!

Don't despair! It says "showers" and that can mean anything. The weather in the mountains is almost always "variable", with a little of this and a little of that.

"Sporadic" as bettyk says...

Just saw a beautiful sunset in Zurich tonight even though it rained this morning. The weather in Switzerland changes all the time and it's always good to have a foldup umbrella and waterproof hiking shoes. I wouldn't change too much and you will find indoor options as the weather evolves...In Bern Zentrum Paul Klee, in Luzern Sammlung Rosengart and Picasso Museum plus Swiss Transport Museum, In BO Ballenberg in Brienz, Schloss Oberhofen...

Have a fun trip!!
