Germany Prepares for Mild Spring Start with Unseasonably Warm Friday

Sunny skies and temperatures up to 23°C will mark the start of spring, but cooler, wetter weather is expected by the weekend.

The official start of spring on March 20 will bring sunny and mild conditions across Germany, with highs of 13 to 20°C.
A high-pressure system stretching from the North Sea to Southeast Europe is driving the current dry and sunny weather.
Friday, March 21, will see unseasonably warm temperatures, peaking at 23°C in some areas, before a weather shift begins.
The weekend will bring increased clouds and rain, particularly in southwest Germany, with temperatures dropping to 8–15°C by Sunday.
Despite warm daytime conditions, nighttime frost remains a concern, with temperatures near or below freezing in some areas.
