Germany Shifts From Fog and Frost to Saharan Warmth as Midweek Surge Looms

Forecasts highlight a warm pulse around November 12–13 with confidence lower for any colder outbreak later in the month.

Overview

  • The German Weather Service has issued official frost and dense fog warnings across parts of Bavaria, with persistent low clouds and poor visibility reported through the weekend.
  • Sunday brings a gray, damp picture for many regions, with light rain in the Southwest and Bavaria and a chance of snow at higher elevations in the Bavarian Forest.
  • Multiple forecasts call for very mild air to arrive from North Africa by midweek, with 14 to 18 degrees common and locally near 20 degrees in the West, though valley fog could keep some areas cooler.
  • SWR meteorologists say widespread winter conditions are unlikely in the near term and describe colder mid‑month scenarios in some model runs as outliers.
  • Officials continue to advise caution for drivers in fog and preparation for frost-sensitive plants, urging residents to follow updated DWD guidance as the pattern evolves.
