Plenty of sun, fresh air and a thin layer of snow – that was like balm for the soul on Sunday after the bad weather on Saturday.
However, if you wanted to drive the car, you first had to scrape the windows hard. We haven’t had that for a long time.

Spring is already in the air – it’s about time, after all, meteorological spring begins on Wednesday. And indeed: the first tender leaves are already sprouting on the bushes, crocuses have fought their way through the approximately one centimeter deep layer of snow. Which, however, let the sun melt away by noon.

Monday will be clear to cloudy with a maximum of 4 degrees. “We expect a rain-free start to the new week,” said meteorologist Diana Hennings (30) from the weather service in Potsdam. An Atlantic high pressure area makes it possible.
