Mild winter dream ends: colder temperatures are ahead!

After a snowy winter that prepared many in Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein for the cold season, we can now look forward to a short period of mild weather. According to forecasts from the German Weather Service (DWD), temperatures of up to ten degrees inland and around seven degrees on the coasts are expected for today, Friday. There will be a brightening of the sky and the rain will also ease. But meteorologists warn: This phase is only short-lived.

A meteorologist describes the current mild weather as temporary, due to low pressure influences that are bringing warmer air to northern Germany. But the weather situation will change dramatically on Saturday. A shift in the wind brings cooler and drier air into our region. Temperatures will drop to a moderate four to five degrees on Saturday and even to three to four degrees on Sunday. There is an increased risk of slippery conditions on Saturday night due to local fog, particularly in the far east.

A look into the future

The duration of the mild temperatures cannot be estimated precisely at the moment. In the coming weeks, Germany could experience a significant cold snap. These forecasts make you want a good cup of tea, because meteorologist Denise Seiling highlights that cold air is moving in from the low pressure areas east of Germany. Another low over Italy will help push the warm air further.

However, the weather is uncertain as changeability is expected. A little rain is expected, but no major precipitation is in sight. The last week of November is particularly uncertain. Different weather models sometimes show different results: While some indicate wet weather, others speak of dry days. The temperature forecasts also remain vague and leave a lot of room for speculation as to whether there could be milder temperatures again towards the end of the month.

Conclusion and outlook

Overall, the coming time could be quite varied in the North German weather kitchen. The mild phase is followed by a cold snap. So if you still want to enjoy the mild days, you should do so as quickly as possible before the cool temperatures arrive. The cold may be an unpleasant companion for many, but the forecast also means that the chances of the first snow are not yet completely over.
