Floor frost and fog: Saxony experiences autumn weather surprises!
What does the weather do this week? On October 3, 2025, the people in Saxony were happy about an autumn -mild day with temperatures between 12 and 14 degrees Celsius in the lowlands. At the same time there was a slight frost in the nights, where the temperatures sank below 0 degrees Celsius at night. During the day, it stayed dry, while the nights in the mountain country even experienced temperatures up to -1.3 degrees that we had last seen at the end of September. [Saxon] reports that after a dry and sunny September, in which Saxons was one of the sunniest regions in Germany with 177 hours of sunshine, a weather turn is now due.
In September we were happy about a monthly agent temperature of 14.5 degrees, but there were also precipitation with 86 liters per square meter, which is above average. While the midsummer reached its height on September 20 with a maximum temperature of sensational 31.9 degrees in Klitzschen, at the end of the month we experienced the first coolness with floor frost and fog in the valleys. Planned excursions outdoors could be somewhat hindered by the fog swaths. [Meteoblue] warns that the weather changes again and again and a hurricane that pulls over Scotland could also have an impact on our weather.
The weather forecast for the coming days
The temperatures are changeable this week and are between 12 and 16 degrees in the lowlands. In the coming nights, the temperatures will cool down to 6 to 2 degrees. From Friday, milder winds and an increase in clouds will be expected, especially with increasing rain. Storm gusts from the southeast are expected and could also reach the inland from Friday evening. [Meteoblue] even storm gusts of up to 100 km/h for the coastal regions. It gets stormy!
The balance of September and the likely weather conditions illustrate the disorders caused by climate change. Extreme weather events such as heat, showers and thunderstorms are increasingly piling up. [Statista] underlines that 16 of the warmest years took place in Germany in the past 20 years, and 2024 was the hottest since the weather records in 1881 with an average temperature of 10.9 degrees Celsius. Not only the heat wave is a topic. The amounts of rain also vary greatly, which increases the risk of forest fires and ensures droughts.
Current weather warnings
The view of the warning messages currently shows high forest fire risks in several counties of Saxony with warning levels of up to 5. In addition, it leads to some fire brigade operations, for example in Dresden and Leipzig, where fallen trees and damage to vehicles and buildings were created. Train drivers also have to prepare for closures. In the meantime, replacement traffic is being set up on the railway line between Freiberg and Flöha. The weather service therefore advises to be more careful in nature and to follow the weather.
Overall, the coming days offer a colorful weather game in autumn. Whether in the lowlands or in the mountain country, the reports are varied and it remains exciting what October still has for us.
