In the past few days, a heat wave has rolled over Germany, which is unusual for the weather in this country.

Now it's getting cooler - but the summer remains.

  • The weather in Germany has so far provided plenty of

    sunshine

    and

    drought

    in

    September

    .

  • The

    temperatures

    are also

    unusually high

    for the

    time of year

    and even made for another tropical night.

  • From

    Thursday

    it will be

    cooler

    in the whole of

    Germany

    .

    However,

    summer

    is not over yet.

Wiesbaden - The highs

Kevin

and

Leiki

brought Germany unusually high

temperatures

and lots of

sunshine

in the past few days

- hardly

anyone had to fear storms anywhere in

Germany

.

There was only a local risk of

thunderstorms

.

In many places, the

weather stations had

even

measured

all-time record values

for the month of September.

Temperatures often rose to over 30, in some places even over 35 degrees on Tuesday.

In Geilenkirchen (North Rhine-Westphalia) the

population was

sweating

at

temperatures

of now 36.2 degrees.

“After the

heat,

Wednesday night

also brought a tropical night,” said

meteorologist

Dominik Jung to the weather

portal wetter.net

.

In many places, the temperatures did not drop below 20 degrees.

Shortly before

sunrise

, the

weather station

in Bad Marienberg (Rhineland-Palatinate) still

measured

about 22.6 degrees.

Weather in Germany: After the heat wave, the temperatures drop on Thursday - but the summer remains

However, the long-lasting summer

weather

also has its negative sides: low humidity and extreme

drought put a

strain on nature and the environment.

But even in the coming days, the

weather

in

Germany will

not bring any improvement in the form of

precipitation

.

It remains summery and mostly dry.

Only 17 DWD stations did not reach a meteorological summer day (Tmax ≥25 ° C).



A tropical night was registered at higher altitudes in the western low mountain range and in Essen-Bredeney.


Here the minimum did not drop below 20 ° C on the night of September 16, 2020.

A delayed vacation to the Mediterranean should not only be reconsidered due to the rising number of coronavirus infections, but also because bad

weather

threatens there.

Many

lows

have established themselves in the Mediterranean region.

In Greece today, a so-called

Medicane

is still

expected - a violent storm low, the strength of which is similar to a hurricane.

"That will bring bad

weather

around Greece

through storms and

heavy rain

", says Dominik Jung, and continues: "In contrast, the

summer weather continues

with a lot of

sunshine here

".

Nevertheless, it will cool down in

Germany

in the coming days - at least a little.

While the

weather

in the

west

still brought

temperatures

of up to 33 degrees

on Wednesday

, the whole of

Germany

expects

significantly cooler polar air from the north from Thursday.

With daily

sunshine

and

temperatures

between 20 and 24 degrees, people in North and East Germany can still enjoy the mild September days for the next week.

In the west and south, the

thermometers

even

measure

around 25 or even more degrees.

Severe weather

can

only occur locally

.

So Germany can look forward to a real summer September with awesome temperatures.

After record-breaking temperatures: The weather in Germany is cooling down - but it remains summery

The signs are currently good that the

population

of

Germany

can look forward

to an

Indian summer again

this year

.

This is an annual

period of good weather

between late September and early October.

The first

forecasts

for the

weather

in

autumn

are also already available.

Meteorologists

assume that after the September summer something unusual will follow.
