Our weather is having a hard time! It can’t decide whether it wants to be autumn or a longer summer – and for the sake of simplicity it slips into a double role. Autumn is played at night, but summer during the day!
Because high “Olenka” above eastern Poland ensures permanent sunshine, the temperatures in Berlin and Brandenburg rise to midsummer 30 degrees, at the weekend it should be even hotter, according to the German Weather Service Potsdam.
It remains clear, no rain is in sight. In the evening, however, the weather changes its costume. At night it gets cold, there is even a risk of temperatures below 10 degrees. Lawns are covered with dew, the first fog is forming, enveloping everything in its autumnal veil.
But as soon as the sun comes out in the morning, autumn dies – and summer lives!
