The sun is shining, there is no frost: the weekend promises spring feelings.
And it should remain pleasant afterwards.
Kassel - Spring is gradually returning in Germany: the days are getting longer again, trees and bushes are getting their first buds and the temperatures are climbing into the double-digit range - including this weekend.
Friday (March 8th) is said to be the most beautiful day of the week.
In many parts of the country the sun shines for up to eleven hours.
And the rest of the weekend promises mostly sunny weather.
According to weather expert Dominik Jung and the German Weather Service (DWD), the mild weather will continue for the next two weeks.
No permanent frost, snow or cold snaps are expected.
Weather in March is slightly warmer than the usual average
March currently has an average temperature of 6.1 degrees, which is above this month's usual average of 4.6 degrees.
It seems as if an existing trend is continuing: Last month was the warmest February since weather records began. Dominik Jung, weather expert at
Wetter.net
, puts it in a nutshell: “From March winter, from late winter, from Arctic winter “There’s nothing to be seen far and wide.”
The second half of the week brings temperatures of up to 18 degrees, with average daily temperatures being a mild ten to 14 degrees, depending on the region in Germany.
“Spring will remain with us, an influx of cold air with a blanket of snow is not to be expected,” emphasizes Jung.
He adds that this is “the exact opposite of winter fantasies.”
Despite the abundant sunshine, the temperature feels cooler due to the fresh easterly wind, especially in the shade.
However, the weather becomes a little more unsettled as the month progresses
From next Sunday onwards, meteorologists are forecasting more unsettled weather overall, which could also bring occasional rain showers.
The following week there will be a mix of clouds and sunshine.
Friday, March 8th: up to 11 hours of sunshine, 8 to 13 degrees, dry
Saturday, March 9th: 8 to 17 degrees, mix of sunshine and clouds, dry
Sunday, March 10th: 9 to 14 degrees, cloudy, some rain in the southwest
Monday, March 11th: 7 to 12 degrees, cloudy, rainy
Tuesday, March 12th: 7 to 11 degrees, heavily cloudy, occasional rain showers
Wednesday, March 13th: 6 to 11 degrees, heavily cloudy but mostly dry
Thursday March 14th: 11 to 18 degrees, cloudy with some sunshine, dry
Friday, March 15th: 8 to 15 degrees, cloudy, with some sunshine, partly rain in the south*

The weather in March remains mostly mild
It is possible that temperatures in March may still be a bit frosty during the nights and early morning hours.
The German Weather Service (DWD) reports that even in the densely populated areas of western Germany, the lowest temperatures could easily fall below freezing on Friday night.
However, Robert Hausen, a meteorologist at the DWD, confirmed that no onset of late winter is expected next week - although arctic air is currently heading towards Germany.
