Winter is coming to Germany.
In addition to winter temperatures, next week it will even snow in lower elevations.
Up to 15 centimeters is predicted.
Munich - Germany is going to be a winter wonderland - and that already next week.
Up to 15 centimeters of snow are predicted.
According to
The Weather Channel
, there will be not one but two cold spells in the coming week.
The first batch of cold air hits Germany on Monday, but has not yet brought any snow.
Only from Thursday, when the second ingress of cold air arrives, will snow also fall deep down, according to
The Weather Channel
.
Winter weather: cold air and Vb weather conditions bring snow to Germany
On Friday it can even flake in Kiel and Flensburg. Because the snow line should temporarily drop to zero meters. However, it will most likely also be windy in the north. Accordingly, air masses are mixed and the temperatures usually rise again. This means that a snow cover can only form from the low mountain range threshold.
But not only the cold air coming from the north brings us the first snow of this winter.
Because another weather phenomenon influences the German winter weather: the so-called Vb-Lage (spoken: "five-b-Lage").
The cold air not only hits Germany, but also our neighbors France and Spain.
This creates a Genoa low - or even two - in the lee of the Alps, explains
The Weather Channel
.
This can lead to heavy snowfalls in the Alps and the Ore Mountains.
Weather Germany: Up to 15 centimeters of snow
On Friday and Saturday, maybe even on Sunday, you can expect 5 to 15 centimeters of snow from 500 meters.
According to
The Weather Channel
, snow falls not only in the Alps, but also in the Eifel, Harz and Thuringian Forest, for example
.
Whether the snow will also remain at lower altitudes cannot be predicted with certainty.

Some weather models forecast snow all over Germany.
Accordingly, at least one to two centimeters of snow should also fall in Hamburg and Berlin.
The coming week will show where it actually becomes white in Germany.
Where there is sure to be snow is on the Zugspitze.
The Zugspitzplatt has even opened its doors to skiers.
