Saxony-Anhalt's weather takes a turn for the dreary with clouds and wind dominating the forecast. On Monday, the German Weather Service (DWD) predicts a persistently overcast day, with rain expected to pour heavily in the northern parts of the state. The southwest goes through intervals of clearing, while the Harz Mountains and Burgenland experience gusts of wind, with squalls even hitting the Brocken. Temperatures reach between 10 and 13 degrees, dipping down to between 4 and 7 at night.
Tuesday brings more clouds, and occasional rain might even turn into snow in the Harz's high areas around midday. The rain gives way to clear skies in the afternoon, with temperatures hovering around 7 degrees, and as low as 3 in the Harz. On Wednesday night, it remains extremely cloudy, interspersed with isolated snow showers. The clouds start to break up during the night, bringing temperatures to as low as 0 degrees in the south, and as low as -4 in the Harz's high regions.
As we look ahead into the week, the unsettling weather conditions predicted by the DWD look set to continue. Heavy rain is anticipated to persist in the northern parts of the state, while the southwest experiences intervals of clearness.
