- *
Expected wet atmosphere falls short; weather remains parched until Sunday approach. - Anticipated rainfall unforeseeably delayed, reduced moisture levels persist until Sunday.
Brace yourself for a damp end to a steamy summer weekend in Baden-Württemberg as rain and thunderstorms are expected to dampen the mood only on Sunday. Contrary to expectations, especially in the eastern part of the country, temperate conditions and clear skies held off on Saturday, according to a German Weather Service expert. "Not much is anticipated for tonight," he added.
Keep your eyes peeled for hailstones as large as cherries
After a warm day with temperatures peaking at 35 degrees Celsius, temperatures along the Rhine and Neckar rivers might remain above 20 degrees overnight in many locales – a tropical night indeed. Despite the continued summery temperatures up to 28 degrees on Sunday, the second day of the weekend is expected to be stormy. Rain may begin as early as Saturday night or at the latest on Sunday morning and escalate throughout the day, the DWD meteorologist predicted.
The weather service anticipates localized heavy downpours with volumes of up to 40 liters per square meter. "Such weather events are typical," a meteorologist noted in advance. Hailstorms carrying stones up to three centimeters in diameter, roughly the size of a cherry, and powerful winds reaching 100 kilometers per hour are also possible.
The weather should settle down following Sunday's heavy showers and thunderstorms in the night to Monday. Monday will be sunny with highs ranging from 20 degrees in the mountains to 26 degrees in the region stretching between Mannheim and Karlsruhe, as per DWD forecasts.
