Heat wave in Bremen: cold is creeping in this weekend!

The current heat wave is bringing extreme temperatures for many people in northern Germany, which will last until Friday. The German Weather Service (DWD) warns of intense heat stress, as official heat warnings apply almost everywhere, while only smaller areas in Schleswig-Holstein are spared from this extreme heat. The maximum values ​​there can reach up to 30 degrees Celsius, while in southwestern Germany temperatures of up to 37 degrees are expected. The people of Bremen in particular have to prepare for tropical conditions when highs of around 33 degrees Celsius are reported on Thursday. Even on Friday it won't be much cooler at around 30 degrees.

But the high summer temperatures don't last. A cold front will move in from Friday afternoon, bringing cold air masses to the north. According to the Weser-Kurier it will be much more pleasant at the weekend: the maximum values ​​will be 22 degrees Celsius on Saturday and 23 degrees on Sunday. After a drop in temperature of around 15 degrees within a very short period of time, the people of Bremen can look forward to a refreshing weekend change in weather, even if the nights are cool with lows of around 14 degrees Celsius.

Weather forecast for the weekend

In the coming period there will be alternating sunshine and clouds, so Saturday and Sunday are ideal for being outside without basking in the blazing sun. On Monday temperatures will rise again to up to 25 degrees Celsius, accompanied by strong sunshine. According to n-tv, local showers and small thunderstorms cannot be ruled out in the coming days, especially on Friday. Citizens, especially in inner cities, are increasingly advised to drink enough water and avoid direct sunlight.

In the broader context, it becomes clear that heat stress in Germany is not just a temporary cosmetic problem. Weather experts warn that such extreme weather events, which are increasing in frequency and intensity due to climate change, can also have a serious impact on our health. Hitzewarnings.de emphasizes that this heat can be dangerous, especially for older people and those who are in poor health.

Health warnings and behavioral recommendations

Doctors and municipalities are on alert and issue clear recommendations for behavior. Old people and people in need of care in particular should exercise particular caution. The heat could have serious health consequences, and not just in the short term! It is therefore important to take good care of your own health and take the DWD's warnings seriously.

So while Bremen are now preparing for the hot summer, they can look forward to refreshing, cooler days on the weekend. Stay healthy and take care of yourself! The future may be uncertain, but the next weekend weather change could add new joy to your plans.
