Brace Yourself for a Miserable Weekend in Hesse
Keeping an umbrella and raincoat handy might just become your new best friend this weekend in Hesse as the clouds gather and rain showers are in store. While the sun might pop up here and there, according to a meteorologist from the German Weather Service (DWD), don't expect it to stay for long.
The north-east direction will see some clearing on Friday, remaining dry with temperatures hovering around 5-8°C (41-46℉). Sadly, the southwest won't be so lucky as it will stay significantly cloudier, with rain showers frequenting the forecast.
Saturday's forecast predicts cloudy to very cloudy conditions after a foggy start. Temporary breaks in the clouds are expected in several places. The good news is that, at least initially, the rain will hold off. However, be prepared for rain in the afternoon with similar temperatures to Friday.
The mood is set to brighten (slightly) on Sunday with partly cloudy conditions and frequent showers. As temperatures rise slightly to 10-13°C (50-55℉), it's time to break out that long-sleeved t-shirt.

The weather forecasts for Frankfurt am Main and Melsungen reveal some nuances:
- Frankfurt am Main: Finding the silver lining, the forecast suggests mostly dry conditions with freeze-thaw temperatures. The sun might even make a brief appearance on Valentine's Day, as temperatures peak at 2°C (36℉). However, be prepared for the chill as temperatures drop to around 1°C (34℉) nightly.
- Melsungen: While also cold, Melsungen may fare a little better with a slight chance of light snow on Friday. Otherwise, the temperatures in this region will hover around 1°C (34℉) all weekend, with a predicted low of -2°C (28℉) on Sunday night.
So while the weekend in Hesse may be long and gray, those in Frankfurt am Main and Melsungen might find a stubbornly hopeful glimmer as the sun refuses to be completely vanquished.
