Residents in southwestern Germany can anticipate a return to summer weather as sunshine gradually replaces thunderstorms and clouds. While Sunday may still see some scattered storms, showers, and overcast skies, the start of the week promises a more pleasant outlook.

The German Weather Service (DWD) forecasts that Monday will be characterized by abundant sunshine, with only scattered cumulus clouds appearing. The day will remain dry, and temperatures are expected to range between 20 and 26 degrees Celsius. A light to moderate northwesterly wind will accompany the pleasant conditions. Overnight into Monday, clear skies are predicted, leading to a cool start with temperatures dropping to between 8 and 12 degrees Celsius, potentially as low as 6 degrees in rural areas.

Tuesday is expected to continue the trend of calm and dry weather. While some cloud cover may move through overnight, leading to lows of 7 to 12 degrees Celsius, the day itself will be mostly clear to partly cloudy and free of precipitation. Temperatures will remain similar to Monday, with cooler conditions around 20 degrees Celsius on the Alb plateau and warmer readings near 26 degrees Celsius in the Upper Rhine Valley. A light to moderate north to northwesterly wind will persist.
