Stubborn High Keeps Germany Foggy by Day, Frosty by Night

An inversion is trapping cool, moist air near the surface, leaving many valleys gray.

Overview

  • DWD says the blocking high will sustain widespread lowland fog and high stratus through midweek, with more reliable sunshine on higher terrain.
  • Daytime temperatures generally range from about 10 to 18 °C, while nights dip locally to near freezing with a risk of ground frost.
  • Morning fog may reduce visibility to below 150 meters in spots, posing hazards for drivers and cyclists.
  • The North remains mild and largely calm with sunny breaks, while the Southwest and Bavaria start gray with patchy drizzle before brighter afternoons.
  • Forecasts keep conditions mostly dry until late weekend when a low could bring rain to the Southwest; some models also suggest a possible late‑October shift, still uncertain, as Alpine areas in Austria see snow above roughly 1500–1700 meters.
