Ice cold in Hesse: frost warning for the night up to -7 degrees!

The German Weather Service (DWD) has given a clear frost warning for Hesse. The warning will apply from this evening, January 19, 6 p.m., and ranges until Monday, January 20, 11 a.m. The temperatures will probably fall up to minus 5 degrees in the coming night, in deep layers and valleys even up to minus 7 degrees, which is worrying for many regions in Hesse.

The following counties are particularly affected, in which warnings for frost up to minus 7 degrees were given: Gießen, Marburg-Biedenkopf, Lahn-Dill, Fulda, Vogelsberg, Main-Kinzig and Wetterau. In the districts of Odenwald, Bergstraße, Darmstadt-Dieburg, Groß-Gerau, Offenbach, Frankfurt, Main-Taunus, Hochtaunus, Wiesbaden, Rheingau-Taunus and Limburg-Weilburg, frost temperatures up to minus 5 degrees threaten

snowfall and winter sports conditions

Despite the icy temperatures, the sun attracts many winter athletes. In Willingen (Upland) and on the Wasserkuppe, the conditions for skiing, snowboarding and tobogganing are excellent. According to reports, all parking spaces on the Wasserkuppe are already occupied, while 12 lifts and 20 slopes are open in Willingen. A current incident in a ski area of the Pyrenees, where a chair lift collapsed, stoked concerned thoughts about security in the ski regions.

The weather forecast for Sunday promises cheerful to sunny weather with temperatures between 2 and 6 degrees, whereby it is milder in higher mountain lines. However, frost is expected again at night, especially in Tallagen with values up to minus 6 degrees.

next day: fog and smoothness

Monday is similar; The maximum daily values range between 1 and 4 degrees, and here too there could be occasional smoothness. For Tuesday, the DWD predicts heavily cloudy and foggy weather, with only sporadic drizzle and temperatures that reach a maximum of 5 degrees.

The temperatures fall back up to minus 5 degrees on Wednesday night. The DWD also notes that the weather is characterized by a high -pressure area over Southeast Europe, which leads to wet air in deep locations, which now drys a bit during the day. In the night of Monday, fog and visibility under 150 meters could occur in the night, while on Monday the fog resolution only progresses slowly during the day and sometimes all -day foggy conditions exist.

The next update of the weather forecast is planned for Sunday evening, January 19, 2025, at 8:30 p.m. in order to continue to observe the water situation in Hesse. The weather situation remains exciting, and the opportunity for winter sports enthusiasts to use the cold temperatures continues to exist.
