Severe thunderstorms and intense downpours to hit the southernmost regions
Weather Forecast for Germany: Warm Temperatures and Variable Rainfall Expected
Germany is set to experience a mix of warm temperatures and variable rainfall in the coming days, according to the latest weather forecast from the German Weather Service (DWD) in Offenbach.
Temperature
The country is expected to enjoy moderate to warm temperatures, with regions in the south and southwest typically exceeding 30°C during heat waves. However, temperatures will range from 17 to 23 degrees from Friday to Sunday.
Rainfall
Southern Germany is expecting rain today and tomorrow, with heavy rainfall expected in southern Bavaria at the Alps on Thursday. Isolated showers may still occur at the Alps on Friday, and heavy rain is expected in parts of southern Baden-Württemberg and around Lake Constance in the evening. The rain in southern Bavaria will gradually ease off in the night to Friday. In the southwest, there will be longer clearings, and it will stay dry on Saturday.
The rest of the country, except for the coast, will have partly clear skies with isolated short showers on Thursday. On Friday, southern and southwest Germany will have partly sunny and cloudy weather, with mostly dry conditions.
Climate Trends and Extremes
Climate change projections suggest an increasing frequency of extreme precipitation events in Germany, potentially causing flash flooding in urban areas, especially in the south and west. This context implies a likelihood of sporadic intense rainfalls alongside warm spells in these regions.
Thunderstorms and Flooding
Local thunderstorms are likely in southern Germany, which could lead to flooding. The thunderstorms could cause streams and smaller rivers to overflow in southern Germany.
Looking Ahead
Temperatures in Germany will rise gradually next week, according to Reinartz. For precise daily forecasts and rainfall timing, consulting a live weather service closer to the date and location is recommended.
