After the heat wave, it will remain warm in Bavaria, but it will probably rain in many places over the course of the week.
There could still be a bang on Monday evening.
Munich – How is the weather in Bavaria, will it still be hot?
A permanent cooling is currently not in sight.
However, according to meteorologists, the sun will be pushed out in some areas by showers and sometimes even thunderstorms with hail and squalls.
Bavaria weather: Thunderstorms with squalls and hail expected near the Alps
The air that draws into Bavaria from the south-west is warm, but also increasingly humid.
Strong thunderstorms with squalls and hail are therefore expected, especially near the Alps.
This was announced by the German Weather Service (DWD) on Monday, August 15th.
But there can also be showers in parts of Franconia, Lower Bavaria and in the Berchtesgadener Land during the week.

Weather news for Bavaria: showers and sun alternate
Towards the middle of the week, the sun will be increasingly replaced by clouds and there will be showers and isolated thunderstorms in western Franconia and Swabia.
With temperatures between 27 and 33 degrees, it will remain hot in many places, with only a weak wind expected.
On Thursday showers and sun will alternate in many places and it will be muggy and warm.
This changeable and no longer midsummer warm weather is not only expected in Bavaria, but from the middle of the week throughout Germany.
