Germany faces heatwave, June record could fall on Friday
Videos
Germany is preparing for a significant heatwave in the coming days. The German weather service expects temperatures to rise, and on Friday they could reach as much as 40 degrees Celsius, particularly in the west and southwest of the country. Deutschlandfunk ↗
According to meteorologists, what is particularly exceptional is that such high temperatures are arriving already at the start of summer. The highest June figure recorded since measurements began was registered on June 30, 2019, in Bernburg in Saxony-Anhalt, where the thermometer showed more than 39 degrees Celsius. If current forecasts hold true, this record could be broken. Tagesspiegel ↗
The heatwave will also affect the north and east of the country. In Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein, temperatures of up to 35 degrees Celsius are expected. In Berlin and Brandenburg, it is expected to warm up again mid-week, with the forecast predicting values of up to 34 degrees Celsius. Die Zeit ↗
Local authorities and municipal services are already addressing the consequences of the persistent heat. In Munich, residents have been urged to use water sparingly. They recommend limiting car washing in particular and extensive lawn irrigation. Die Zeit ↗
The development of the weather in the coming days will depend on whether the highest temperatures actually concentrate in the west and southwest of Germany. Meteorologists will therefore be watching Friday closely in particular, when the heatwave could reach its peak. Tagesspiegel ↗
