Germany Set for Unusually Mild Start to November as Rain Band Moves In Saturday

Forecasters expect southerly air, potentially aided by Hurricane Melissa's remnants, to extend the mild spell into next week.

Overview

  • The DWD reports a largely mild, locally sunny Friday with persistent dense fog in parts of Bavaria, prompting a warning for visibility below 100 meters overnight from the Danube region into the northern Alpine foreland.
  • On Saturday, thick cloud and rain spread from the west across much of the country, while the southeast stays comparatively dry with highs mostly in the mid‑teens and locally up to around 18 to near 20 degrees.
  • Sunday turns more unsettled with widespread clouds and rain, strong to stormy gusts likely at the coasts, and the DWD flagging strong to stormy gusts at the Alpine rim in the afternoon.
  • Regional forecasts highlight contrasts: northwest states expect frequent showers and wind, whereas parts of Bavaria and the southeast see the brightest spells on Saturday before rain arrives later.
  • Multiple outlets and model guidance indicate the above‑normal temperatures are likely to persist into the first week of November, with meteorologists reporting that Melissa’s remnant energy could help sustain the warm airflow without posing a direct storm threat to Germany.
