Munich before the weather change: First dry, then wet in the evening

Munich starts Monday, May 11, 2026, under a thick cloud cover into an uncomfortable spring day. It remains dry at first, but the west wind is noticeable – and rain will move in by the evening.

Throughout the day, temperatures mostly range between 13 and 17 degrees. In the evening, values drop to about 10 to 15 degrees, and at night it cools down further: then 5 to 9 degrees can be expected.

Monday morning: Gray, cool, and with strong gusts

Already in the morning, the sky is completely overcast, and there is no sun in sight during the morning. In addition, a strong west wind blows, repeatedly sweeping through with stiff gusts up to 51 km/h. This makes the morning noticeably rougher despite comparatively mild temperatures (13 to 17 degrees) than the thermometer values might suggest.

Afternoon: Still densely cloudy – the wind picks up a bit more

In the afternoon, the picture remains almost unchanged: lots of clouds, mostly still dry during the day. Temperatures reach 16 to 17 degrees. The wind remains noticeable: gusts from the west up to 58 km/h are possible. This keeps it uncomfortable outdoors – especially in open areas and exposed spots, where gusts can be stronger.

Evening and night: Rain sets in, temperatures drop

In the evening, the weather noticeably deteriorates. Moderate rain sets in, and at the same time, the temperature drops to 10 to 15 degrees. Light rain continues to fall during the night. It remains windy, even though the wind eases a bit compared to the day. With lows of 5 to 9 degrees, it becomes noticeably cooler.

Assessment: Still manageable during the day, better weatherproof in the evening

Compared to last week, the weather is noticeably cooler, less pleasant, and less sunny. The difference is also clear compared to the same day last year: instead of sun and mild warmth, this time clouds, wind, and later rain dominate.

For daily planning, the timing is especially crucial: those who are out and about during the day have a good chance of staying dry. For the evening and night, a rain jacket or umbrella is advisable. The sun rises in Munich at 05:40 and sets at 20:40.

Outlook: The next few days will also remain rather cool

• On Tuesday it will be cloudy with 5 to 10 degrees, only brief clearings are possible, and stiff gusts from the west will occur again.
• Wednesday seems a bit friendlier: cloudy but dry, with 2 to 14 degrees, a bit more sun, and still lively west wind.
