Germany Experiences Unusually Dry Spring in 2025, According to DWD
The German Weather Service (DWD) in Offenbach is set to release a report this Friday regarding the weather patterns during the spring season in 2025. One of the main concerns as per the preliminary findings is the drought that has been troubling the country recently, as stated by a spokesperson for the DWD.
Preliminary data reveals that the spring of 2025 was significantly drier compared to only the springs of 1893 and 2011. The meteorological start of summer, which falls on June 1, has not yet been reached, but this trend seems likely to hold.
Despite the dry conditions, the spring months of March, April, and May averaged cooler than usual. As of now, the average temperature stands at 9.7 degrees Celsius, although it is possible that the weekend could bring relatively warmer temperatures, potentially altering the average. The spring season of 2024 was the warmest in Germany since record-keeping began.
The unusually warm and sunny weather has contributed to the reduced rainfall, leading to the drier-than-average spring conditions reported by the DWD. The exact numbers of sunshine hours and total precipitation are not provided in the report, but it is evident that the 2025 spring season stands out for its unique weather patterns compared to the historical baseline, with a shift towards warmer and drier springs.
