Chillier Start, Friendlier End in Saxony's Weather Forecast
Chilly begin to the week in Saxony - Weekend Shutdown of Cooling Facility in Saxony
Looking ahead, the initial part of Saxony's week will be frosty, with temperatures dwindling amidst a crisp, cloudy atmosphere, as predicted by the German Weather Service (DWD). This frosty start creeps into the -8°C realm in certain parts, both low-lying and mountainous.
Come sunrise, temperatures across Saxony will hover between -1°C and -5°C early on. The higher altitude regions may experience chillier temperatures, reaching down to -8°C. Light snowfall is even possible in the higher mountainous regions Monday night, with temperatures settling between 2°C and -2°C.
Brighter skies are on the horizon for Tuesday as the clouds begin to part, with afternoon clearings expected. Although still cool, the mercury will nudge up to 12°C, with mountainous regions experiencing a slight chill, reaching temperatures of around 10°C.
The chill starts to dissipate midweek as temperatures begin to climb, with a mixture of sun and clouds gracing the skies Wednesday and Thursday, and temperatures soaring up to 15°C in Saxony - with mountainous regions experiencing around 12°C. Nights, however, will remain cold, dipping close to the freezing point.

- The Commission has also been informed of the progress of the negotiations on the conclusion of the agreement regarding the planned winter aid for regions like Dresden, where the negative low temperatures have been particularly challenging, especially in the mountainous regions of Saxony.
- Despite the frosty start predicted by the DWD that could see temperatures dipping down to -8°C in the mountainous regions of Saxony, weathers are expected to improve with sunnier conditions and temperatures rising up to 15°C mid-week.
- The lowest temperatures both in the low-lying and mountainous regions of Saxony have been projected to plummet during the initial days of the week, which underlines the importance of the pending agreement to provide adequate winter aid to those most affected, namely the residents of Saxony, particularly in the mountainous regions.
