Weather Change in the Upper Palatinate

Regensburg: First Sun, Then Rain and Stormy Gusts

Regensburg starts Sunday in a friendly way – but the weather change follows in the evening. After a sunny and mild start to the day, clouds will gather, and light rain is possible at night. At the start of the week, temperatures will noticeably drop, and the wind will increase significantly. All information refers to forecast data.

Sunny Start, Increasing Cloud Cover in the Afternoon

In the morning, 8 degrees are forecast for Regensburg, with temperatures rising to 23 degrees during the day. It will remain sunny and cloudless until the first half of the day, with a total of 9 hours of sunshine indicated.

Later, the picture changes: At first, it remains fair to slightly cloudy, but as the day progresses, it becomes cloudier. Fresh gusts from the east are also expected – an indication that the wind will noticeably pick up and could become unpleasant in the cityscape, for example on open areas along the Danube or on bridges. In the evening, it is expected to be overcast and windy.

At Night: Light Rain Likely – Amounts Vary

Light rain is forecast for the night. A high probability of 90 percent is mentioned. However, there are two different figures circulating for the expected amount of precipitation: once 7.8 l/m², elsewhere 1.2 l/m² – both also at 90 percent. In practical terms, this means: Rain is considered likely, but the exact intensity remains uncertain in the forecast. Accordingly, depending on how things actually develop, it could be just a brief shower or turn out wetter.

Monday and Tuesday: Noticeably Cooler, Windier, Occasionally Wet

On Monday, the milder air is expected to have already been displaced: Only 18 degrees are mentioned. In addition, strong wind with gusts up to 60 km/h from the northwest is expected, accompanied by light rain. On Tuesday, the cooler, windy weather continues – 13 degrees and strong gusts from the west are mentioned. All in all, after the warm Sunday, a much more unsettled and noticeably fresher phase is emerging.

Pollen: Sunday Still Somewhat Burdensome for Grasses, Relief on Monday

For allergy sufferers, the situation with grass pollen is especially relevant on Sunday: Near the Danube in Bavaria, a medium to high burden is mentioned. Birch pollen is said to occur only in low amounts; for ragweed, mugwort, alder, ash, hazel, and rye, no burden is indicated. On Monday, the situation is expected to ease significantly: For grasses, no to low burdens are mentioned, for the other listed pollen types, it remains at "no burden," birch also without burden.

  • Grass pollen: medium to high burden (Sunday), no to low burden (Monday)
  • Birch pollen: low burden (Sunday), no burden (Monday)
  • Ragweed, mugwort, alder, ash, hazel, rye: no burden (Sunday and Monday)

Conclusion

Those who make use of Sunday in Regensburg will first get plenty of sun and early summer temperatures. By evening at the latest, however, it is worth keeping an eye on rain and wind developments – at the start of the week, cooler air, strong gusts, and occasional rain are expected.
