Germany is preparing for a shift in weather as low pressure systems are set to bring snow and gusty winds next week, replacing the initially dominant high-pressure conditions. The East Frisian Islands will face stormy gusts early in the week. Saturday will see cloudy skies with high fog and light drizzle in the northwest, while the southeast may enjoy occasional clearings with fog patches. Temperatures are expected to range from 7 to 0 degrees Celsius.
Sunday morning will start foggy across the country, but the sun is likely to peek through by the afternoon. As the new week begins, a high over the British Isles will introduce a northwesterly flow, ushering in moist and colder air. Regions like Hessen and NRW will experience overcast skies, mild rain, and fog, with temperatures fluctuating between 7 and 14 degrees. Bayern will see fog and potential frost, with lows reaching -3 degrees.
This transition marks a departure from the milder, wetter conditions of October, with meteorologists suggesting that a rare 'cold air drop' could unexpectedly bring snow to the central highlands, adding an element of surprise to Germany's late autumn weather.
