Extreme heat in Spain is always an indication of a hot summer in Germany. Weather experts are now announcing the first forecasts for summer 2023.

The first hot days with values of around 28 degrees are not expected until the last third of June. The ocean current in the Pacific will not affect a possible hot summer this year, according to meteorologist Jan Schenk of the Weather Channel. More likely from winter onwards, effects on temperatures can be expected at the earliest, he says.. Extreme heat like in 2022 is not to be expected so far.
