Daily Weather in Germany

Today, I'm going to be talking about the daily weather in Germany, specifically, the weather in the capital city of Berlin. To discuss the daily weather, we will look at the forecast across three days, March 16th, 17th and 18th. March 16th has a forecasted low of 30 degrees, ranging to a high of 49 degrees with a 10% precipitation percentage. The 17th of March was slightly warmer with highs at 52 degrees and lows at 34, and a 0% precipitation percentage. Finally, on March 18th, the forecasted high is 49 degrees, and a low of 35 degrees, with once again, 10% precipitation. Over this three day period, the pressure dropped very slightly, but stayed around and average of 30.38in. Across these three days, the average wind speed remained constant at 10 mph.

Here is a map of Germany with information provided by satellite, radar, as well as weather stations.
 

 As you can see, Germany is mostly covered by a layer of low, warm clouds with only a small amount of cold clouds stretching from southern Germany to the Czech Republic. The radar shows us that at this time there is almost no precipitation throughout Germany, with only light precipitation occurring in the middle, and a few spread-out occurrences in the south, near Munich. A surface map of Germany allows us to learn information about the surface characteristics of the country. There are very few rivers throughout Germany, but there are quite a few lakes spread around. Light mountain ranges cover the center of the country, and there are much larger ones around the southern border. Many areas throughout the country are colored light green, indicating forested areas or parks.


 
You can see in the closer map of Germany, the isobar pressures observed range from 1036  to 1012, with a high pressure system right above Northeastern Germany, and another one a bit to the west. We can also see a cold front moving in from the northwest and a warm front moving the other direction near that. We know that air flows from high pressure systems to low pressure ones, so we should be able to see where the air will flow by looking at the larger map and identifying low pressure systems.

In this larger map of Europe, we see all of the same things from the previous map, but with surrounding conditions included as well. We see all the isobars between 1000-1032, and there are several more high pressure, and some low pressure systems on the map. We see four more high pressure systems, two far in the north east, and two far in the southeast. There are also 5 apparent low pressure systems, one directly south, and four in varying distances to the east.  In addition to the cold and warm fronts from the smaller map, we see warm, cold and occluded fronts to the south, alternating warm and cold fronts in the southeast, as well as the northeast.
