Heavy rain is to be expected in eastern Germany. A deep brings cool sea air into the land. Temperatures remain sobering.
- The weather will remain cold and wet in the coming days.
- Low “Bruno” influences inconsistent weather in Germany.
- Partly even with snow to be expected.
Update from August 27, 4:03 p.m.: The weather situation in Germany is relaxed shortly before the weekend – although in the uncomfortable summer trend 2021 it is quite cold for the end of August. The cool and inconsistent weather is caused by a low, the core of which lies firmly above Poland.
According to Kachelmannwetter.com, the low altitude “Bruno” will bring heavy rainfall to Germany – until next week. The low pressure area is relatively stationary and directs rain areas and individual thunderstorms to Germany from northeast to north. A relief is therefore not to be expected at the start of the week either. Another meteorologist, however, warns the Republic * of floods and expects difficulties in certain areas.
Update from August 27, 9.41 a.m.: When will it be summer again? Quite a few people in Germany have asked themselves that in the past few weeks. At least not in the last weeks of August 2021. That is now clear. Temperatures have already dropped rapidly in the past few days. And the prospects for the coming days are not exactly warming either. Heavy rain can occur in northeast Germany, warns the German Weather Service (DWD).
The weather situation will be influenced in the coming days by a low that pulls south along the Oder and Neisse rivers. Along the depths, “cool sea air moves to Germany with a northerly current,” according to the DWD. Over the weekend, snow is even expected in locations over 2000 meters *.
