Heavy rain and thunderstorms are to be expected in many places. But according to the DWD, the influence of high pressure will soon prevail again.
Meteorologist Sabine Krüger expects the regional focus of lightning, thunder and sometimes severe precipitation to be in a strip from southern North Rhine-Westphalia through Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland northeast to Western Pomerania and northern Brandenburg. In addition to heavy rain, larger hailstones and squalls must also be expected locally. There could also be isolated strong thunderstorms in the southwest and in the Alps.
On Wednesday it will be partly cloudy with showers and thunderstorms, which will be particularly strong in the east and southeast and can bring heavy rain and hail. In the northwest and north, however, the clouds are clearing up – the maximum temperatures reach 18 degrees in the North Sea and up to almost 25 degrees in Lusatia.
Thursday will still be cloudy in the southeast. Some rain is still expected in the Alps, and isolated thunderstorms are also possible. Even in the north it will be cloudy at times, otherwise sunny or slightly cloudy in many places.
On the coasts and on the edge of the Alps, temperatures reach up to 19 degrees, and on the Rhine and Moselle up to 25 degrees. On Friday it will only be cloudy at times in the northwest and north, otherwise it will often be sunny with a few cumulus clouds with highs between 21 degrees in the northeast and 27 degrees on the Upper Rhine.
