Baden-Württemberg braces for cooler, more varied weather

Residents of Baden-Württemberg can expect a shift in weather patterns as the new week begins, bringing an end to the recent period of sustained sunshine and high temperatures. While some southern regions will continue to experience warm conditions, highs are not predicted to surpass the 30-degree mark. A more significant cooling trend is anticipated towards the week's end.

The German Weather Service (DWD) forecasts a mixed start to the week, with the southeast of the state likely to see clouds and scattered showers. However, the northwest is expected to clear up and remain dry, with temperatures reaching up to 26 degrees Celsius along the Upper Rhine.

Tuesday is set to begin with sunshine, though clouds may gather in the northeast, potentially bringing some rain. Warmer temperatures are expected in Breisgau, reaching 28 degrees, while the higher elevations will see cooler conditions up to 22 degrees. Wednesday's forecast mirrors Tuesday's pattern: sunny spells followed by increasing rain, with a possibility of thunderstorms in the south. Southern Baden-Württemberg could again see temperatures around 30 degrees, with the Alb region reaching up to 24 degrees.

Looking ahead to the latter half of the week, the DWD predicts a gradual temperature decrease. Thursday in Stuttgart is expected to range between 20 and 25 degrees, with further cooling to follow. By the upcoming weekend, the state capital is forecast to have maximum temperatures around 20 degrees.
