Saxony's Weather Woes: Squalls and Rain Ahead
Get ready to don your raincoats and prepare for some excessive gusts of wind in Saxony, as the German Weather Service (DWD) has some unsettling news. Friday is set to be a tumultuous day, with intermittent rain and snow showers expected to fall upon the region. The Westerly winds will be particularly feisty, with gusts reaching up to a frightening 85 kilometers per hour. The Fichtelberg, a popular mountain destination, is even predicted to experience a hurricane-like storm. Temperatures will linger between four and six degrees Celsius, with minus one to four degrees in the mountains.
Saturday night will bring its own share of chaos as rain cascades from west to east, and snow flutters down at higher altitudes. The upper mountains will remain stormy, enduring three to one degrees Celsius, and as low as minus three degrees. The early hours of Saturday will usher in a rainy start, with snowfall above 400 meters in certain areas, especially east of the Elbe. The mountains will continue to shiver with gale-force winds, especially on the Fichtelberg, as temperatures sit at a chilly three to five degrees.
As families get ready for their Christmas Eve celebrations in Dresden, prepare for some drizzly showers and gusty winds. The weather may prove to be a challenge for travelers, with sudden squalls, particularly in the mountains. The temperatures will rise slightly, ascending to nine to eleven degrees Celsius, but still reaching minus one to three degrees in the mountains.
Additional Insights:
While the DWD's forecast may seem daunting, many still have their hearts set on visiting the Fichtelberg despite the weather. To ensure your safety, it is advisable to review the most recent DWD forecast before embarking on your journey.
