Gray, windy Wednesday in Munich: Mostly dry during the day, rain arrives at night

Munich starts into a fresh, mostly gray and noticeably windy May day. At first it remains dry, only at night will it get wetter with light rain.

May 13 begins in the state capital still slightly cloudy, but as the morning progresses the cloud cover thickens. With 13 to 14 degrees, it remains cool for the time of year and above all uncomfortable due to the wind. In the evening, little changes at first – then at night light rain sets in.

This is how Wednesday starts in Munich

In the morning it is cool: Temperatures are between 4 and 13 degrees. In addition, the sky is initially still somewhat clear before the clouds become significantly denser. The friendliest phase of the day thus falls in the early hours.

Already at the start of the day, the wind is an issue. For the morning, strong westerly gusts up to 45 km/h are mentioned – this creates a fresh impression, even if it remains dry at first. The sun rises at 05:37, but sunny intervals are only to be expected briefly.

Dry in the afternoon, but completely overcast and still windy

In the afternoon it remains dry in Munich, but at the same time the sky is then completely overcast. The maximum values are at 13 to 14 degrees.

The wind remains dominant: A strong westerly wind blows with strong gusts up to 43 km/h. Such short, strong gusts of wind can quickly make the weather feel "rough" in everyday life – for example when cycling or in open spaces – even if it is not raining. Together with the dense cloud cover, this results in an overall gray impression.

No improvement in the weather in the evening, light rain at night

In the evening, little changes: It remains overcast and windy, temperatures drop to 9 to 13 degrees. No clearing is in sight.

At night, the next change follows. With 8 to 9 degrees, light rain sets in, and the wind shifts from west to southwest. Thus, Wednesday ends not only cool and gray, but also wet.

Brief outlook for Thursday and Friday

On Thursday, it will also remain rather dull and cool in Munich. 7 to 12 degrees are expected, again with an overcast sky and strong westerly winds with strong gusts.

On Friday, the picture changes only slightly: With 5 to 15 degrees it becomes a bit milder, but it remains mostly overcast. At least there is a brief chance of sunshine. Rain is not forecast for Friday, the wind will then come from the southeast.

All in all, Wednesday in Munich brings little sun, fresh air and a strong westerly wind. Those who are out and about during the day will mostly stay dry – for the night, rain and continued cool temperatures should be expected.
