Thunderstorms and heavy rain in Brandenburg: weather warning for the Prignitz!

Today, July 18, 2025, the weather in Berlin and Brandenburg is quite changeable. At the beginning of the day the sky is covered in dense clouds, but as the day progresses there are occasional breaks. How maz online reported that the temperatures rise to a pleasant 24 to 26 degrees, which speaks for a summery day.

In the afternoon, strong thunderstorms can be expected, especially in Prignitz. These thunderstorms bring local heavy rain of up to 15 liters per square meter and wind gusts of up to 55 km/h. Particular caution is therefore required for the region, because the warnings are clear: anyone who goes outdoors should be prepared for sudden changes in the weather.

Insight into weather developments

The current weather situation is influenced by a low over Eastern Europe that is bringing moist and warm air to Brandenburg and Berlin. According to the latest weather forecast DWD Isolated thunderstorms are expected in the afternoon and evening, with wind gusts reaching around 50 km/h. For the Prignitz, localized heavy rain with up to 20 l/sqm is possible. So it's not only warm, but also exciting in terms of weather.

Saturday night will remain mostly dry and partly cloudy, with temperatures dropping to a pleasant 16 to 12 degrees. The people of Cologne can also look forward to clear to slightly cloudy weather on Saturday. The temperatures here then rise to a summery 27 to 30 degrees. A real dream day! Particularly important: Only a few short showers are expected, so nothing stands in the way of a nice time outdoors.

Weekend full of variety

Sunday will have similar weather, with highs between 28 and 30 degrees. But the southwest could be disadvantaged by the weather gods, because showers and thunderstorms are also expected here during the day. Fog is also forecast to form again in the coming nights, creating a mysterious atmosphere.

Interestingly, the risk of forest fires in Brandenburg has decreased significantly. Now the danger remains at the lowest level, which is a relief for the region. July has so far turned out to be a significantly wetter month compared to the dry June, which could of course also be an advantage for nature.

Overall, the weather will bring a lot of variety over the next few days. The mix of clear days, occasional showers and the play between sun and clouds makes July 2025 quite an interesting month in the region.
