Anticipation Rises for Sumerian-like Climate
Forecast for the Second Weekend of August 2025 in Germany
The second weekend of August could witness a significant summer comeback, with daytime temperatures expected to rise significantly, potentially reaching the 30-degree mark. Nighttime temperatures are predicted to be between 14–18°C. However, the weather will be changeable, with the possibility of storms and sudden weather changes, particularly in central and northern mountainous regions of Europe, which might affect Germany.
A high pressure system is likely to reach us from midweek, improving the weather and increasing dry and sunny periods. This system may, however, be interrupted by brief and localized storms, mainly in certain areas such as mountains or northern parts.
Rainfall for the month of August is expected to be below normal, with only 3–5 days of rain amounting to 30–50 mm. The weather map for the second weekend can be viewed on WetterOnline.
On Saturday, pleasant intervals are forecasted in Rhineland-Palatinate to southern Brandenburg. Sunday will bring some dry hours in the west, although specific weather conditions for the day are not mentioned.
Grass, dock, and plantain pollens are still present in the air, while the pollen count is increasing in other regions, though no specific regions are specified. Ragweed pollen count is also on the rise in northern and eastern Germany, with the plant approaching its peak in these regions. Ambrosia, a plant related to ragweed, is starting to bloom, but low to moderate concentrations of Ambrosia are being recorded, regionally limited. No specific pollen forecast is provided for the current article.
Tuesday will be turbulent, especially in the north, due to a storm approaching from the North Sea. Wind speeds may decrease by the weekend, though they could still be strong in certain areas, especially near the coast and the western Baltic Sea.
