Germany winter forecast. News. Germany is seeing its first snow and frost this November, giving the country a true winter feeling. However, weather experts say this doesn’t mean the entire winter will stay cold. Meteorologist Dominik Jung from wetter.net has shared that long-term weather forecasts point to a mild winter instead. Predictions from models like GFS and ECMWF suggest temperatures could be 1-2°C higher than the 1991-2020 average. If these predictions hold, the winter of 2024/25 could turn out to be one of the warmest on record.
Severe Winter Hits Germany
While the snow and frost bring a chill now, temperatures in Germany could rise to as high as 20°C by the end of November. This sudden shift from cold to almost spring-like warmth matches the forecasts for a milder winter. Experts say warm Atlantic air currents are expected to dominate, meaning snow and frost are likely to be rare in the coming months.
According to weather data, 2023 has already been an exceptionally warm year. Every month has recorded above-average temperatures, making it one of the hottest years in history. This trend is likely to continue into the winter months. While there is still a chance for occasional cold spells, the overall pattern suggests that this winter will feel more like an early spring than the frosty, snowy season many expect.
For now, Germany can enjoy the touch of winter brought by November’s frost and snow, but it seems unlikely to last. If the forecasts are correct, the coming months will feature milder weather, continuing the warm streak that has defined much of 2023.
