Weekend Shines: Mainly Sunny Conditions This Summer Season
Hot and Dry Weather Sweeps Northern Germany this Weekend
Northern Germany is set to experience hot and dry conditions this weekend, with temperatures soaring to the high 20s to low 30s degrees Celsius.
According to the latest weather forecast, Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein will see temperatures ranging around 28–32 degrees. The region is expected to remain mostly dry, with low chances of precipitation due to the dominance of a strong Heat Dome pushing stable, hot weather over much of Europe.
Similar warm conditions are predicted for Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Baltic Sea coastal areas, with temperatures near 30 degrees. Precipitation chances remain low as the heatwave extends northward but does not strongly affect Northern Germany with rain this weekend.
The overall pattern is influenced by a major Heat Dome over Europe, causing a prolonged heatwave from southern to parts of northern Europe, including parts of Germany. While southern and central Europe are seeing extreme heat reaching low 40s degrees, Northern Germany experiences somewhat milder but still above-average summer temperatures.

On Friday, Northern Germany will enjoy increasingly summery weather. In Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein, temperatures will reach 27 degrees, with sun and clouds alternating. On the Baltic Sea in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, temperatures will be between 22 to 25 degrees.
