The German Weather Service (DWD) warned of slippery conditions and frost in southern Germany. Rain, sleet, and isolated thunderstorms are expected in large parts of Germany for the rest of the weekend.

The snowfall limit will drop to 400 meters on Saturday. “The next few days until the beginning of May will remain quite wet,’ meteorologist Dominik Jung predicted. The altitude weather map shows temperatures of up to -35 degrees for Sunday - at an altitude of 5.5 kilometers. The effects of this are sleet down to lower altitudes and “hard air frost” on Sunday and Monday. The latter is likely to particularly worry farmers and winegrowers who have to worry about their plants. “On Sunday evening a fat cold egg will come right here to us in Germany,’ said meteorologist Dominik Jung in a video for Wetternet.net.
