Last night of frost in Baden-Württemberg: a change in the weather is approaching!
On May 23, 2025, the German Weather Service (DWD) announced a frosty development in some regions of Baden-Württemberg on Saturday night. The Swabian Alb, the southwest Alb and the northeast of the country are particularly affected. In extreme cases, local frost down to -2 degrees can be expected, especially in unfavorable valley locations. The current weather situation is characterized by a cold front that is bringing cool air into the region.
The DWD is forecasting highs between 13 and 21 degrees for Saturday. Temperatures could be similar on Sunday, with between 14 and 21 degrees expected. The start of the new week will bring temperatures of 17 to 21 degrees, but light rain is possible again on Sunday night.
Rain and drought
Although temperatures are rising, the risk of rain will increase as temperatures become milder. A sunny and slightly cloudy sky can be expected for Saturday, while on Sunday up to 20 liters of rain per square meter could fall in the northeast half of Baden-Württemberg. The rest of the country is estimated to receive between 5 and 10 liters of rainfall. Despite this rainfall, the amount is described as insufficient to combat the ongoing drought.
In recent days there has been light rainfall of up to 50 liters per square meter in the Swabian Alb, while the region north of Stuttgart has received little or no rain. However, from Monday afternoon the weather will dry out, which will be a relief for the current weather situation.
Global extreme weather events in context
The current weather phenomena in Baden-Württemberg are in the context of global climate change, which has been causing temperatures to rise for years. According to statistics from the Federal Environment Agency, 2023 was the hottest year since global records began, with an average temperature almost 1.5°C higher than before the Industrial Revolution. Such extreme weather events can be observed both in Europe and on other continents, where record temperatures and heavy rainfall are no longer the exception but the rule.
Awareness of climatic changes is growing, and weather experts repeatedly emphasize the need to resolutely face the challenges of extreme weather conditions. In this sense, the forecast for the coming weekend in Baden-Württemberg remains important for both citizens and farmers - the cooler temperatures and subsequent rains could be more a sign of change than a harbinger of worse times.
In summary, the upcoming weather changes also need to be viewed in a larger context. The extreme weather events experienced not only have local effects, but are part of a global pattern that continues to vary.
While Baden-Württemberg is preparing for a mild week with some rain showers, it remains to be seen how the weather situation will develop and what measures will be necessary to meet the existing challenges of climate change.
