Foggy Start for Germany With Midweek Sunshine, Brief Warmth Possible Before Weekend Chill

Forecasters caution about model-dependent swings later in the week.

Overview

  • The German Weather Service (DWD) says the week opens mostly gray with fog, drizzle, rain and isolated snow across large areas.
  • DWD expects many regions to brighten by midweek with more sunshine and milder daytime temperatures, though stubborn low stratus may linger in river valleys.
  • Berlin and Brandenburg begin dreary but mostly dry, with daytime highs around 8 to 11 degrees Celsius and a gradual midweek warming trend.
  • Weather analyst Dominik Jung of wetter.net reports that warm upper-level air from the Sahara could reach Germany in the second half of the week, bringing readings around 15 degrees and locally near 20 degrees in the Alps.
  • Several models then point to a sharp cool-down into the weekend, potentially near minus 10 degrees in the mountains, a scenario that remains uncertain and subject to updated DWD guidance.
