Starting today, the realm of Hesse will experience a leisurely mix of sun, clouds, and, yeah, some rain, according to the dudes over at the German Weather Service (DWD). But don't worry about getting drenched today—they're promising a dry day. The sun will be shining more in the south, with temperatures hovering around 13 to 17 degrees Celsius.

On Thursday, clouds will take center stage, with local rain showers and a chance for sunshine in the north. Overnight into Friday, temperatures will plummet to 6 to 1 degree Celsius, and there might be a wee bit of frost in the low-lying areas of the North Hessian Uplands. But hold on tight, 'cause Friday's gonna clear up and stay dry, with highs between 15 and 19 degrees Celsius.
Now, let's break down the nitty-gritty weather details for Hesse. Spoiler alert: It's gonna be pretty mild and mainly dry with some variation in cloud cover and temperature. The current temperatures in Frankfurt are approximately 23 to 24 degrees Celsius, with sunny weather and low humidity (roughly 26 to 27%). As we head to Homberg (Efze), expect the mercury to rise to highs around 18 degrees Celsius by the afternoon, with mornings starting out cooler at around 7 to 9 degrees Celsius. The temperature trend in Wetzlar shows daytime highs increasing from about 9 to 16 degrees Celsius over the weekend, with nighttime lows dropping to the low 40s Fahrenheit (around 5 to 7 degrees Celsius).
On the rainfront, patchy showers are spotted near some locations, but the probability of precipitation is low for most parts of Hesse. For instance, Wetzlar anticipates only light sprinkles with a low chance of rain (15-27%) on Friday and Saturday, and no rain predicted from Sunday onwards. Frankfurt and its surrounding areas are mostly staying dry and sunny with minimal rain expected. Moreover, a powerful storm with thunderstorms that hit Hesse earlier this month won't rear its ugly head in the upcoming days.
Oh, and don't stress out about the wind or humidity levels. They're light to moderate, generally coming from easterly directions at speeds between 2.5 to 7 mph. Humidity levels range from low to moderate (26-82%) depending on the time of day and location.
