Aroused by every model forecast heat wave<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know how it\u2019s been in other countries so far this year, but in Germany it seems a number of German weathermen have been getting acutely aroused every time a model sees a heat wave in the pipeline 2 weeks out. The media make headlines out of them.<\/p>\n\n\n

Of all people, you\u2019d think meteorologists would know the huge uncertainties these models have beyond 7 days. But, when you\u2019re desperate for attention, you might succumb to the temptation to take them as being real enough and have yourself quoted in the press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Germany has seen an unusually dry spring this year. This has likely raised hopes of a hot summer. The DWD German national Weather Service reports<\/a> that spring 2025 in Germany was 0.9\u00b0C warmer than the 1991-2020 reference period. One reason for the warmth was unusually sunny weather. Spring 2025 in Germany saw 695 hours of sunshine, around 33% more than the reference period 1991-2020 (522 hours) mean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The plentiful sunshine meant lower precipitation. Spring 2025 in Germany was the third driest on record. Only 96 liters of rain fell per square meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spring has aroused forecasters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The warm dry weather has definitely aroused many of Germany\u2019s weathermen, who are now caught up in full blown record-heatwave summertime fantasies. Lost from memory are the months of heavy rainfall seen from late 2023 to the end of 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over at German Weather Channel here<\/a>, Jan Schenk<\/strong>  suddenly warned of \u201ca 100-year summer\u201d with temps soaring to 40\u00b0C in Germany. \u201cOne of the hottest summers ever is in the cards at 70 to 100%.\u201d\u2026 \u201cThe previous summer of the century in 2003 could soon be replaced.\u201d \u2026 \u201cOver the course of the summer, a heat dome will form over south-eastern Europe, which will also spread to Germany. This means that we can expect a lot of high pressure and sunshine \u2013 and little rain. The highs will not stop at 30 or 35 degrees. We can already assume that the 40 degree mark will be exceeded several times in the summer of 2025. And the first heatwave in Germany will already appear in June.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to point out that many weathermen today no longer forecast the weather, but instead simply report spectacular scenarios that models invariably churn out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

20\u00b0C could mean 40\u00b0C!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over at Wetter.net<\/a>, meteorologist Dominik Jung<\/strong> said the European Weather Model (ECMWF) is showing a\u201cmassive high altitude heat\u201d for June 9, \u201cDown on the ground, that would mean more than 35 degrees, maybe 38, 39, maybe almost 40 degrees,\u201d says Jung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, however, the ECMWF model is showing no such heat for early June. We can only speculate that Jung\u2019s forecast has its origins in overly active fantasies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what will become of Germany\u2019s summer? A hot one of course cannot be excluded. But to claim a near record hot summer is 70-100% sure is nothing but meteorological attention seeking and headline-grabbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
