Summer heat and thunderstorms: Sultry nights in Schleswig-Holstein!

What is happening in northern Germany today? August 14, 2025 will bring both sunny and cloudy moments. In the evening there will be lots of sunshine as well as isolated showers and even one or two warm thunderstorms. The temperatures are between 24 and 33 degrees, with it being hottest in Büchen at 33 degrees. In the evening hours the temperatures drop to a pleasant 19 to 16 degrees, ideal for enjoying the evening outside.

The weather situation is currently influenced by two pressure systems: low “Quill” is moving over Scandinavia, while high “Kyra” is bringing weather from the northeast Atlantic to northern Germany. These systems provide cooler and more humid air, which makes for cooler nights. Until the end of the day there may be repeated wind changes that bring fresh gusts.

Weather forecast for the coming days

What's next in the far north? There will be a mix of sun and clouds on Friday. Initially, isolated showers or thunderstorms are possible in the southeast of the country, but it will often remain dry. Denser cloud fields will move in from the North Sea until the afternoon. The maximum temperatures today reach 22 degrees on the Halligen and up to 29 degrees on the state border with Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

The wind will be light to moderate, but can become gusty if there is precipitation. It will remain largely dry on Saturday night, with only a slight chance of rain in the western parts of the country. Here the temperature dropped to a pleasant 16 to 13 degrees.

The chances of an even nicer day are not bad for Saturday: alternations of sun and clouds promise a largely dry day, with temperatures then ranging between 19 and 23 degrees. A light, often moderate wind will accompany the air supply and will be fresh to strongly gusty in coastal regions.

Weekend prospects

And what about Sunday? A longer period of sunshine is in prospect, accompanied by a few harmless clouds. Thicker cloud fields may appear in the western parts of the country, but it will remain dry here too. The highs stagnate between 20 and 25 degrees, which would be perfect for a trip to the coast or a picnic in the park.

In summary, the coming days will offer a colorful mix of weather between sun, clouds and occasional rain showers. If you are planning a trip, you should dress warmly and take an umbrella!
