Autumnal Weather Arrives with Fog and Rain at the Beginning of the Week - Autumnal start marked by mist and precipitation
As we step into September, the weather in Germany is set to be a mixed bag, according to the Deutsche Wetterdienst (DWD).
Starting from Wednesday, the day will remain cloudy with maximum temperatures ranging from 17 to 22 degrees Celsius. However, no consistent late summer weather is expected for the start of the week.
Looking ahead to the weekend, a change is on the horizon. Clouds are expected to roll in overnight on Sunday into Monday, with rain and fog predominantly affecting western Germany, particularly west of a line from Hamburg to Munich. Shower-like rain and localized thunderstorms will be most prevalent in eastern North Rhine-Westphalia, while the northeast remains relatively sunnier and drier.
Meteorologists consider Monday as the start of autumn, and the first drops of rain will fall in Baden overnight Sunday into Monday. The rain is expected to continue into Tuesday, with some weather models predicting locally gusty winds and even thunder and lightning.
By Thursday, the clouds should clear up, leaving only scattered showers behind. However, the respite from rain is expected to be short-lived, as late summer could make a comeback next weekend, according to a DWD spokesperson. Some weather models predict temperatures above 25 or even 30 degrees Celsius next weekend.
Overnight Wednesday into Thursday, it could be foggy in some places, and fog is also expected overnight Tuesday into Wednesday. It's important to note that these predictions are subject to change, so be sure to stay updated with the latest weather forecasts.
In summary, the start of the week will be marked by rain and fog, particularly in western Germany, with some regions in the northeast remaining relatively dry. However, by the end of the week, we could see a return to warmer, summer-like temperatures. Stay dry and stay tuned for further updates!
