Winter Weather Patterns in NRW and Surrounding Regions

This weekend, NRW will experience sunny winter weather with temperatures ranging from 1 to 5°C, while the Sauerland may dip as low as -1°C. Caution is advised in mountainous areas, where conditions could be slippery due to temperatures falling between -3 to -9°C.

As the week progresses, a mix of sunshine and clouds is expected, with temperatures slightly rising to 5-7°C by midweek. Meanwhile, Berlin and Brandenburg brace for icy conditions and potential snowfall.

In the Rhein-Sieg-Kreis, winter's chill has been slightly more pronounced than in recent years, with signs of early spring emerging in the form of blooming snowdrops. Climate change is influencing pollen patterns, leading to an earlier onset of allergenic seasons, which poses challenges for those affected.
