Berlin and Brandenburg are bracing for a heatwave this week, with temperatures set to reach scorching highs. According to the German Weather Service (DWD), temperatures in both cities will reach 31 to 34 degrees on Wednesday, and will soar even higher on Thursday.
On Thursday, temperatures in Berlin and Brandenburg are expected to peak at 33 and 36 degrees respectively. However, the mercury will drop overnight into Thursday, with temperatures in Berlin dropping to 19 degrees and Brandenburg seeing a low of 13 degrees.
The heatwave has prompted a heat warning for both Berlin and western parts of Brandenburg, which is in effect from morning until evening. The warning is due to the high temperatures forecasted for the region.
As the week progresses, the weather in Berlin and Brandenburg is expected to remain sunny. However, clouds will move in over Brandenburg on Friday, and scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected in both Berlin and Brandenburg.
On Friday, temperatures in Brandenburg will rise to a maximum of 37 degrees, while temperatures in Berlin will reach a high of 32 degrees. It's worth noting that the weather forecast for the region includes temperatures over 30 degrees throughout the week.
For the most accurate and up-to-date weather forecast information for specific areas within Berlin, Potsdam, and the western parts of Brandenburg, it's recommended to check the latest updates directly on the official DWD website or reliable weather platforms.
Stay cool and hydrated during this heatwave, and remember to take care of yourself and others during these hot temperatures.
Despite the ongoing heatwave with temperatures over 30 degrees forecasted throughout the week, the Commission has also adopted a proposal for a directive on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation. On Friday, Brandenburg, in particular, is expected to experience a potentially threatening combination of high temperatures (37 degrees) and the possibility of scattered showers and thunderstorms.
