Dour Downpour Welcomes Holiday Beginnings: Sunlight Fails to Appear - Bleak weathers greet the onset of holiday season, as relentless rains dominate the skies instead of the usual sunlight.
Forecast for Bavaria's Early August Weather
The German Weather Service (DWD) has released its detailed weather forecast for the start of August 2025, focusing on the region around Munich in Bavaria, Germany. The forecast suggests a transition from unsettled weather with thunderstorm risk to a stable, hot, and sunny period.
Early August: A Transition Period
The first two days of August, specifically August 1 and 2, are expected to bring a chance of thunderstorms and rain nearby, with temperatures ranging from 21°C to 24°C (69°F to 74°F) [1]. A moderate wind of about 8 km/h (5 mph) is also expected during this period.
August 3-9: Sunshine and High Temperatures
From August 3 onwards, the weather is forecasted to be mostly sunny. High temperatures are expected to reach up to 34°C (93°F) on August 8 and 29°C (83°F) on August 9 [1]. Precipitation levels are very low (0.0 mm), and skies are mostly clear, indicating little chance of rain or thunderstorms. Humidity ranges from moderate (33% on August 8) to higher (58% on August 9), which can increase the comfort level.
Winds remain light during these days (2 to 12 km/h), with UV index levels reaching 7 to 8, indicating strong sunshine.
Other Bavarian Locations
For other Bavarian locations like Regensburg and Garmisch-Partenkirchen, early August average temperatures range from about 22°C to 26°C, with a possibility of cooler nights (down to 9.7°C to 12.6°C) [3][4]. However, these sources do not specify rain or thunderstorm chances in detail.
Summer 2025: A Heatwave Across Europe
Summer 2025 in Germany is affected by a heatwave across Europe, with unusually high temperatures and warnings in place for several regions [2]. This aligns with the forecasted sunny and hot conditions later in the first week of August.
In summary, the weather in Bavaria during the start of August might be accompanied by thunderstorms early on, followed by a predominantly sunny, hot, and dry period. Visitors and locals alike should be prepared for strong sunshine and potentially hot temperatures during this period.
The Commission, in light of the heatwave across Europe, has also been consulted on the draft regulation on the application of the rules on the protection of the environment, given the anticipated sunny and hot conditions in Bavaria during early August.
Despite the forecasted clear skies and high temperatures, it is essential for residents and tourists to stay updated on weather-forecasting services for possible unexpected changes, such as thunderstorms, during the initial days of August.
