Get ready for a gray start to the week in Berlin and Brandenburg, with temperatures hovering around mild. But hold onto those holiday wishes, as a dusting of snow or sleet is possible by Christmas Eve next weekend, according to the German Weather Service in Potsdam. The second half of the week isn't looking so festive, though. Expect cooler temperatures, increased winds, and a lot of rain.
Here's a breakdown of what to expect:
- Sunday: The Fläming, Elster, and even Berlin will see some lightening of the cloud cover, with temperatures around 8 to 10 degrees.
- Monday and Tuesday: Mostly cloudy skies and temperatures of approximately 7 to 9 degrees.
- Wednesday onward: Things start to get uncomfortable. Temperatures drop, the wind picks up, and rain becomes a constant companion.
As for the possibility of a white Christmas, well, a little snow or sleet can't be ruled out. Keep an eye on DWD's weather updates to stay informed.
