Around midweek the Azores ridge will approach our regions. Subsequently sunny conditions and strongly increasing temperatures are forecast. High summer weather is expected particularly on Thursday and on Friday. First thunderstorms are probably expected in the second half of Friday respectively towards Friday evening. Thunderstorms are probably only locally expected, many places and regions may remain spared from thunderstorms. Saturday will probably bring rain showers and thunderstorms during the day. This will be caused by a cold front, which will result in significantly decreasing temperatures at all altitudes. The further development is absolutely uncertain. Summer weather is possibly expected again after these unsettled conditions.
