Sunday of
the new year.
“Next Sunday, a
snow depth will sweep Germany

There should be snow all the way down, ”said
meteorologist Dominik Jung
from the
Q.met
weather service
.
The weather models agree on that.
This time, a deep snow is approaching from the south, explains Jung.
It moves from north to south across Germany.
The temperatures drop by up to 2 degrees and that could then also bring snowfalls in the north.
However, it is still quite mild in the north with 3 to 4 degrees, admits the weather frog.
Then there could only be sleet or rain there.
"In the rest of the country there are snowflakes all the way down and white landscapes cannot be ruled out from 200 meters," says the meteorologist.

in the
Black Forest
in Baden-Württemberg.
Sometimes flakes are said to fall here from a height of 400 meters.
