The German Weather Service (DWD) has forecasted the first snowflakes in Germany for Monday morning. They are expected in the Alps and high elevations of the central uplands. "One doesn't need to be a prophet to predict that the first snow pictures will then make the rounds," said meteorologist Martin Jonas to the news agency dpa.
The reason for this weather shift is cold polar air streaming toward Germany. On Sunday, the weather remains divided: The south stays mostly dry with occasional sunshine. In the north, it rains, and the precipitation spreads inland during the day.
In the evening, conditions improve slightly along the North Sea, but showers return later. Coastal areas will experience strong winds and gusts. Overnight into Monday, heavy rain is possible in the south, with snow in the mountains.
This development signals a transition to cooler autumn weather in Germany.
