Let's talk about the weather in Hessen on Tuesday. It's a bit on the changeable side, especially in the northern regions, courtesy of a low-pressure system. According to Germany's meteorological service, expect some cloudy skies and showers, mainly in the north with a possibility of isolated showers in the afternoon. The south, however, stays mostly dry. The temperature range? Around 19°C up north, 25°C along the Upper Rhine, and 17°C in the highlands. The wind, you ask? Moderate southwest breeze turning west-northwest in the afternoon with gusts reaching up to 55 km/h in highlands and the northern Hessian mountain range.

As for Tuesday night, the wind calms, clearing the skies with local fog forming as the last drops of rain subside. Temperatures drop to 12°C in the south and 8°C in the north.

Now, brace yourself, because from Wednesday, things heat up. High-pressure takes the reins, and the sun shines widely, keeping the moisture at bay. Expect temperatures to rise to a comfortable 21 to 26°C, with the warmest temperatures once again along the Upper Rhine. And here's the best part – Thursday and Friday promise to be mostly sunny and warm as well. But, the real showstopper happens on Friday, with local temperatures potentially reaching a staggering 33°C! You might even encounter the occasional shower or thunderstorm towards the weekend.

The Commission has not yet adopted a proposal for a directive on the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation during Hessen's upcoming summer heatwave, where local temperatures in places like Offenbach along the Upper Rhine could potentially reach a staggering 33°C. Given recent trends towards warmer summers with increased heatwaves due to ongoing climate change, it is essential to monitor the latest updates for accurate temperature predictions and prioritize worker safety in all weather-forecasting scenarios.
