Weather: It will be cool and wet

NAfter a changeable and windy Saturday, the weather calmed down on Sunday. But spring is not in sight, as Magdalena Bertelmann from the weather forecast center of the German Weather Service (DWD) in Offenbach reported. It can even snow in the mountains on Monday.

The last Sunday in March varies from region to region: in the north, roughly north of a line from Emsland to Berlin, it usually stays dry with loose clouds. Further south, rainfall from the west and south-west spreads eastwards and also reaches Saxony and eastern Bavaria in the late afternoon.

While it stays gray almost all day in the middle of Germany, the chance of a few rays of sunshine increases in the south over the course of the day. At 8 to 14 degrees it will be a bit cooler in the region.

Sensitive balcony plants should be covered on Monday night, the meteorologist advises, because light frost is possible then. Windy, showery weather is again in the forecast for Monday – with one major difference: Instead of rain, it will mostly snow and the maximum values ​​will rise to a maximum of 4 to 8 degrees. At high altitudes there can be around 30 centimeters of fresh snow in the Alps and maybe up to 50 centimeters of fresh snow in 24 hours in the Oberallgäu.
