Overview
- On Sunday Germany is under a high‑pressure ridge with daytime highs around 18–24 °C and widespread morning fog that can be slow to clear.
- Forecasters from the Deutscher Wetterdienst and regional experts say a cold front will move in on Wednesday, triggering rain, isolated thunderstorms and a notable drop in temperatures by Thursday.
- The rain risk increases earliest in the southwest, where showers and occasional thunderstorms are expected from Sunday afternoon into the week.
- Coastal areas and mountain regions face the highest gust risk, with fresh to stormy gusts forecast in showers, on peaks and along the shore as the front passes.
- Munich and the final day of the Oktoberfest are likely to remain mostly mild and dry with highs near 20–21 °C, though afternoon showers cannot be ruled out and the overall pattern is expected to stay cooler and unsettled into the next weekend.
