Germany Faces Foggy and Frosty Start to the Week
Widespread fog, frost, and occasional sunshine characterize the weather across German regions, with rain expected later in the week.
- Northern and eastern regions, including Berlin, Brandenburg, and Saxony, experience sunny starts to the week, with temperatures reaching up to 6°C.
- Western and central regions, such as Hessen and Rheinland-Pfalz, remain predominantly foggy and cold, with highs between 1°C and 4°C and lows down to -7°C in higher elevations.
- Nights across the country bring dense fog, frost, and occasional glatteisgefahr (slippery conditions) caused by freezing moisture.
- High-pressure system 'Beate' maintains dry conditions early in the week, but its influence weakens midweek, allowing rain and potential snow in higher altitudes by Thursday.
- An inversion weather pattern causes warmer temperatures in some elevated areas, while lowland regions remain colder and enveloped in fog.
