Bavaria is bracing for a warm weekend as summer temperatures continue to dominate the region. Friday is expected to bring highs of up to 30 degrees Celsius, particularly in the southern parts of the state where scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible. The northern areas of Bavaria, however, are predicted to remain dry.
Saturday offers little respite from the heat, with temperatures forecast to range between 28 and 33 degrees Celsius. While the chance of precipitation is low, the Alps may experience some afternoon showers. The German Weather Service (DWD) anticipates these conditions as residents enjoy the ongoing holiday season.
The mercury is set to climb even higher on Sunday, with the DWD predicting temperatures could reach up to 36 degrees Celsius across the Free State. This late-summer heatwave signals a continuation of the warm spell, though the DWD also warns of isolated thunderstorms developing overnight into Monday.
