Gusts, Showers and Early Alpine Snow Forecast for Southern Germany

Police report limited damage with warnings about aquaplaning on wet roads.

Overview

  • The German Weather Service forecasts a sun–cloud mix with showers and isolated thunderstorms across Baden-Württemberg, driven by a brisk west to southwest wind.
  • Stürmische Böen are expected in higher terrain, with Schwarzwald peaks near 80 km/h and similar gusts on Bavarian ridges and Alpine summits through Monday.
  • In Bavaria, longer precipitation at the Alps is set to fall as snow above roughly 1,500 meters, while lowlands see wind gusts up to about 60 km/h.
  • Bavarian authorities reported only minor incidents overnight, and police linked several A9 crashes near Bayreuth to aquaplaning with no injuries and about €20,000 in damage.
  • Unsettled conditions persist into Monday with periodic rain and regional temperature ranges around 8–16°C in Baden-Württemberg and 9–15°C in Bavaria, with a possible brief improvement on Tuesday in the southwest.
