For Sunday, 6th July 2025, a weather forecast suggests rain showers with a peak temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and a rainfall amount of 11.8 mm [2]. However, this information may not be specific to the DWD or cover the entire day.

The heatwave in NRW is anticipated to continue on Sunday, but the rain showers are expected to turn the weather cooler later in the day. Overnight temperatures in NRW could fall to 10 degrees Celsius, and temperatures in higher elevations will drop to 16 degrees.
