Overview
- The Deutscher Wetterdienst has issued region‑specific wind warnings for the weekend, including Stufe‑2 alerts in parts of Bavaria and forecasts of orkanartige Böen up to about 110 km/h on the Brocken.
- Northern coasts and west‑facing Mittelgebirge saw heavy rain and isolated thunderstorms with local totals reported near 40 l/m², creating a risk of localized flooding and slippery roads.
- Short, early‑season snow showers are expected above roughly 1,800–2,000 metres in the Alps and inner‑alpine peaks, with minor accumulations and patchy glätte possible at high elevations.
- Clearer skies behind the front will produce night‑time low temperatures and localized ground or air frost in inland lowlands, threatening sensitive plants and causing icy surfaces on rural roads.
- Forecast models show the unsettled phase ending rapidly by Monday–Tuesday, when high pressure should return milder, sunnier conditions for several days, easing the immediate hazards.
