So the forecasts for Bavaria are

Together with April, a spring high called « Noemi » began over Germany. It stays cold at night, the sun shines during the day and the temperatures climb up – even in Franconia up to 21 degrees. Spring 2025 already had one or the other sunny and too warm period in its program. It would still be particularly nice if the weather meant it well when the Easter holidays are pending. How high are the chances for this?

The Easter holidays in Bavaria begin on April 25, 2025. Good Friday falls on April 18, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday to April 20 and 21. Meanwhile, the holidays run in Hesse, Bremen, Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia and Schleswig-Holstein for April 7: Exactly when the wind turns to northeastern directions and leads cold air masses of polar origin in the height to Germany.

Bavaria weather until Easter: cool air, sun, but also precipitation

The second week of April shows that the cold air has also reached Germany and is not simply derived south via Eastern Europe. Especially in the east of the Republic, it was cool with just 4 to 8 degrees at the beginning of the week, while at night the temperatures sank to 0 degrees. This was also true for Bavaria, where the winter jacket could be brought out again away from the sunshine: Dense clouds were raised near the Alps and on the eastern low mountain ranges.

But towards the end of the week, the weather shows itself from a much friendlier side. The temperatures in the south of the country rise to partly up to 20 degrees. A few clouds rarely push in front of the sun. But the change again in the next few days: a lot of rain, at least in warm temperatures. Will we then face a cold or rainy Easter?

Weather on Easter 2025: Long -term models predict mild temperatures

At least it should not be cold, this is evident from the weather models: Even after the slight drop in temperature, the weather services currently show hardly any significant deep runners towards Central Europe. According to the long -term forecast of wetter.de Between the 17th and 23rd April values ​​of up to 20 degrees. The forecasts of the European Center for medium -term weather forecast (ECMWF) also indicate spring -like weather from April 13th.

However, it is important to point out that the weather is not yet precisely predicted over such a long period of time. It is more long -term modelsmake the approximate forecasts based on weather data. The predictions will be more specific the closer the Easter days. According to the German Weather Service in April, an overall, slightly inconsistent and windy weather character is also possible in the expanded medium -sized period. The uncertainties of the high pressure influence are still too great.

The DWD is currently publishing a different forecast: on Thursday « Maximum values ​​from west to east between 13 and 27 degrees », on Good Friday it will be a bit cooler. To this end, showers are expected to change locally evenly in thunderstorms. However, the weather should calm down on Saturday. From mid -April, rainfall in southern Germany should become more common. So the same as the saying says: April, April, what he wants.

Weather forecast Easter: late Easter dates tend to warmer

In recent years there has been almost every weather on Easter – from constant rain, violent thunderstorms, storms and snowfall to summer temperatures is possible, writes the German Weather Service. The reason for this is, among other things, the fluctuating time of the Easter festival: the earliest Easter Sunday is 22.03. Already at the end of March, while the latest only falls on April 25th. This alone ensures that later Easter appointments tend to be rather warmer than those that are at the end of March.

Incidentally, the coldest Easter festivals were in 1964, 1977, 2008 and 2013. In these years, the maximum values ​​were only in the low single -digit range. Easter in 2000, on the other hand, was particularly warm. Values ​​of 25 to 30 degrees were reached, especially in the east. According to Potsdam records, the leader is 30 degrees on Easter Sunday, April 23, 2000.
