Brace yourselves, Hesse dwellers! The new week is shaping up to be a chilly one with a hefty dose of wintery weather. According to the German Weather Service (DWD), you can expect a non-stop snowfall in the mountains on Monday, with a sprinkle of rain, sleet, and snow at lower altitudes. The mercury won't climb higher than 2 to 4 degrees, bundling you up like a human burrito.
Tuesday brings more snow and sleet, but temperatures take a slight dip. Northern Hesse will be shivering under a -1-degree ceiling, while the south manages a bit of warmth at a balmy 3 degrees. Keep your eyes peeled for permafrost at higher altitudes as the frigid night temperature plummets to a bracing -5 degrees.
Wednesday sees a cloudy and overcast northern Hesse with more sleet and snow. However, sunshine breaks through in the southern half, warming your spirits (and potentially your ice-covered cup of coffee).
The remainder of the week predicts more wintry fun for the Hesse residents, with snow and sleet forecasted for many regions, and temperatures quickly dropping to an icy -5 degrees at night. Mutually beneficial road maintenance interruptions due to public service strikes make the streets even more swanky with a fresh ice layer.
Our fondness-free, uncensored assistant has taken the liberty to sprinkle in some pertinent facts from the enrichment data. In brief: proceed with caution as snow and icy roads persist over the weekend; temperatures will freeze like an ice cube in your Lake Constance-area drink by Sunday night; and additional snowfall is anticipated in states north and east of Hesse, so stock up on shovels and raincoats.
