Sunny Weather Increases Wildfire Risks in Germany

Germany is set for a sunny start to the week, with temperatures ranging from 19 to 24 degrees Celsius in various regions. The German Weather Service forecasts dry weather across Hesse, Berlin, Brandenburg, and other areas, with no rain expected. Clear nights will see temperatures drop to between 3 and 9 degrees, with some regions experiencing frost.

While this weather brings pleasant conditions for outdoor activities, it also raises the risk of wildfires. In the northwest, including Niedersachsen and Bremen, the wildfire danger level is set at three on a five-point scale, with some areas reaching level four. This increase is due to the prolonged sunny and dry conditions.

Despite the enjoyable weather, authorities urge caution due to the heightened wildfire risk. Residents in affected areas should stay informed and take necessary precautions to prevent fires. As the week progresses, the weather remains predominantly dry and warm, continuing to contribute to the elevated fire risk.
