Germany hasn't really seen a lot of snow this fall.
Even a white Christmas is once again uncertain.
A weather expert classifies the current forecast.
Wiesbaden – The first regions have already been able to enjoy a little snow in the past few days, but this week the weather in Germany has been mostly unspectacular.
November cools down more and more, the temperatures are more and more similar to winter.
A weather expert classifies the current forecasts - and already takes a look at the possible Christmas weather.
Weather in Germany: Typical November weather – temperatures cool down
Diplom meteorologist Dominik Jung from the Q.met weather service (www.qmet.de) explains to the weather portal
Wetter.net
that fog and haze in particular are to be expected more frequently in places on the first weekend in Advent.
All snow fans should therefore be left dry for the time being, new white splendor should not be expected at first.
“But at the turn of the month things remain exciting.
The models let a further cooling come in to Germany.
While up to 10 degrees are currently being reached at the top, the maximum values would then only be around 0 to 5 degrees.
And at night there would be “light frost almost everywhere,” Jung continued.
Because the whole thing is happening under the influence of high pressure, snow is not to be expected for the weekend either.
However, "extremely warm air masses" are brewing over France and England.
In Germany, however, these are not felt, "we would rather stay on the cooler side," said the weather expert.
However, winter could soon be back with a little hint.

Weather in Germany: White Christmas this year?
Weather expert is not sure yet
Just in time for the beginning of winter, which for meteorologists starts on December 1st, weather models are also expecting cooler temperatures for Germany.
But even if cooler temperatures are expected for Germany from this point in time, the question that is important to many cannot be answered: will a sudden onset of winter give us a white Christmas this year?
Even the weather expert cannot give a clear answer to that at the moment: "It's all still completely open.
It can be super mild on the holidays, but also freezing cold with snow”.
Winter fans still have to have a little patience.
While Germany can still look forward to relatively normal November temperatures, snow paralyzes many parts of Sweden.
Heavy snowfall in Sweden caused chaos.
Stockholm was particularly affected.
The Swedish weather service speaks of "snow cannons".
And in Italy, too, the weather is currently being observed particularly closely.
Due to a storm, flooding threatens Venice.
The lagoon city had to activate its flood protection.
