Unpredictable Easter Weather in Germany

Easter in Germany is marked by unpredictable weather changes, as forecasted by the German Weather Service. While Easter Sunday begins with sunshine, it takes a turn with showers and thunderstorms expected by noon, particularly affecting the southwest. The day is characterized by varying conditions across regions, with the southern parts like Lower Saxony experiencing potential rain and thunderstorms from evening onwards. Temperatures are set to range from 11 to 21 degrees Celsius.

As Easter Monday approaches, the weather becomes more unsettled. Severe weather warnings are issued for central Germany, anticipating heavy downpours and gusty winds. Flash floods are a concern, with rainfall possibly reaching up to 35 liters per square meter. Despite the rain, the ongoing dryness maintains the risk of forest fires.

In cities like Berlin, residents enjoyed the sunny spells and warm temperatures around 20 degrees Celsius on Easter Sunday, making the most of parks and cafes. However, Monday brings a mix of sun and occasional showers, with temperatures remaining mild between 19 and 21 degrees. The unpredictable nature of the weather means keeping a raincoat handy is advisable for outdoor plans.
