Hoch Yona is shoveling more and more heat into Germany.

The thermometer can climb well over 30 degrees.

Then a stormy change in weather threatens.

Munich - hot, hotter, hottest.

Soon there will be no more ways to increase the weather in Germany.

June already packs everything on the tableau that is otherwise only available in midsummer.

Up to 40 degrees should still be there this week.

And temperatures above 30 degrees are also reached in Bavaria.

Weather in Bavaria: Historic June - highs around 40 degrees possible

From a meteorological point of view, June is already a summer month - but not yet in terms of the calendar. Summer doesn't start until June 21st. “In any case, we expect the highest possible temperatures for the current season. After all, we actually still spring, "said weather expert Dominik Jung von

qmet.de

. And the predicted 40 degrees in the east of the republic are extraordinary. "Since 1881 there has never been 40 degrees in June in Germany."

According to meteorologist Jung, June also plays in the Champions League when it comes to half-time results.

With an average of 3.4 degrees it is much warmer than the long-term climate mean.

So far the month is still too dry.

Only 29 percent of the usual precipitation has been reached so far.

In return, the sun seemed more than productive.

61 percent of the average sunshine target has already been met.

With the peak values ​​announced in the coming days, these values ​​can be increased even further, Jung suspects.

Bavaria is threatened with a change of weather at the weekend

The reason for the heat wave is Hoch Yona, which shovels hot air from southwest Europe and the Sahara to Germany. Which also means temperatures above 30 degrees for Bavaria. Every day from now on a new, small increase can be read on the thermometer. While on Tuesday, June 15, the average is around 27 degrees, the mercury column will exceed 30 degrees in many places by Thursday at the latest. Tropical nights over 20 degrees, however, are still a long way off until the weekend. Tonight it will be almost fresh with values ​​between twelve and 15 degrees.

The weather is about to change towards the weekend.

"With the heat comes the great sultriness from Thursday," says Jung.

That can lead to a “big bang” in Bavaria by Sunday at the latest.

Thunderstorms with hail and squalls are then possible again.

Until then, however, spring, which is already disguised as summer, will be at its best.
