Meet the marmot, greeted every day - "Each day, the marmot offers a friendly salutation"
The coming weekend in Germany, specifically on Saturday and Sunday, will see a shift in weather patterns, according to meteorologist Stueckle [1]. However, contrary to popular American traditions, the groundhog is not a significant weather forecasting symbol or method in Germany for the upcoming weekend.
German weather lore places more emphasis on dates like the Seven Sleepers’ Day, which occurs around mid-year and is believed to indicate mid-year weather patterns, but does not specifically apply to early August weekends [1].
For the coming weekend, the weather forecast is primarily based on advanced scientific and technological methods, including high-resolution numerical models and machine learning approaches developed by institutions like the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) and Forschungszentrum Jülich [3][4].
As for the weather forecast on Saturday and Sunday, dense clouds, regional showers, and individual thunderstorms are expected over Germany. Maximum temperatures will range from 17 to 24 degrees. In the south, the temperatures will gradually rise after Tuesday, while in northern Germany, it will become windy due to a storm on Sunday [1].
At the coasts and in the high north of Germany, it will be stormy at times on Sunday. A final cold front will move from northwest to southeast on Tuesday, marking the end of the cooler weather [2].
Looking ahead to Monday, the weather forecast announces a change. After Tuesday, summer will gradually return to Germany, especially in the south where it will become partly sunny [2].
