Forecast for Germany: Weather conditions will last until mid-June
According to the U.S. weather model, nothing will change in the beautiful weather until the middle of the month. "We are currently expecting dry weather until mid-June," said Dominik Jung. However, this is not surprising, according to the expert at wetter.net. "Once such a stable high has built up, it can usually last quite a long time," he explained. And that's exactly what's happening in Germany right now.
With temperatures between 22 and 28 degrees during the day and seven to 13 degrees at night, neither great heat nor cool air masses would be expected in this country. "It is not yet possible to say when the stable high-pressure weather situation will end," Jung continued.
