Sweltering temps persist in southwestern Germany once more
In Hamm, the city is gearing up for a series of changes and updates. Schloss Oberwerries, a prominent landmark, is set for renovation [1].
The German Weather Service (DWD) in Offenbach has reported high temperatures in the southwestern states of Germany over the past few days. On Wednesday, temperatures reached up to 37.0 degrees Celsius in Rheinfelden, Baden-Württemberg, and 35.4 degrees Celsius near Müllheim near Freiburg [2]. Hamm's specific temperature for that day remains unmentioned in the news. However, the day before, Rheinfelden reached up to 34.8 degrees Celsius, and Trier-Zewen reached up to 34.3 degrees Celsius [3].
The DWD forecasts highs between 30 and 37 degrees Celsius for this Thursday [4]. Only along the coasts will it not be as hot, according to the DWD. It's important to note that these temperature readings are based on preliminary measurements from the DWD weather stations [5].
While the heatwave continues, there's good news for local sports clubs in Hamm. Sparkasse Hamm is providing 775,000 euros in support to these clubs [6].
The news from Hamm also includes information about mail-in voting procedures.
In the broader context, the southwestern states of Germany, including Baden-Württemberg and Rhineland-Palatinate, have a temperate climate with warm summers often experiencing temperatures above 30°C (86°F). The region is among the warmest in Germany during summer, with occasional hot days due to the föhn wind effect [7].
Looking at the forecast for the upcoming two weeks in the region around Speyer, daily highs generally range from the mid 70s to upper 80s Fahrenheit (about 24–31°C), with lows ranging roughly from 54°F to 66°F (12–19°C), indicating continuing warm and mostly stable weather [1].
