• Rain will dominate in lower regions, while temperatures range from -1°C to 7°C during the day and drop below freezing at night, creating potential icy road conditions.
• North Rhine-Westphalia and other northern areas will see mostly cloudy skies with intermittent drizzle, and occasional snow in elevated regions like the Sauerland.
• The second Advent weekend remains gray and overcast, with a mix of rain, snow, and limited sunny spells in parts of the country.
