Midsummer in Munich: Up to 33 degrees on Thursday!

What a midsummer day in Munich! Today, August 14, 2025, the city can expect a bright morning with lots of sunshine and temperatures that are quickly rising. Highs of up to 33 degrees are reached around midday, which offers the perfect atmosphere for a piece of birthday cake in the beer garden or a walk along the Isar. The German Weather Service (DWD) informed us in advance that it would remain dry all day and that the wind would blow from the east with moderate gusts of 26 km/h. This sounds like an ideal day to enjoy the surrounding nature and unwind.

But it's not just the sun that's a topic of conversation. From the late afternoon onwards, increasing cloudiness will provide some variation, but will remain dry. In the evening hours, a cooling down to a pleasant 22 degrees can be expected, while the wind blows slightly from the southeast. The DWD predicts that the coming days will be similar - hot temperatures, lots of sunshine, occasionally a few clouds here and there. Up to 31 degrees are also in prospect for tomorrow, although denser cloud fields are expected.

Heat stress warning

With these summer temperatures comes the heat stress, which should not be underestimated! According to wärmewarenen.de, this heat poses a threat to human health. The DWD has issued official heat warnings for today and the following day to make the population aware of the health risks. Particularly sensitive people should make sure to cool down sufficiently and drink plenty of fluids, even without official warnings.

The heat warnings include various criteria that are taken into account to accurately assess exposure. The temperatures at night play just as much a role as the daytime values, because even if the heat is intense during the day, the night can be uncomfortable if the temperatures do not fall low enough.

Wind warnings in mind

While the day starts calmly in Munich, we must not forget that there are warnings for gusts of wind. Things get particularly serious at arcs over 50 km/h. These warning levels are of great importance, especially if you are outdoors - dangers can arise here, even if today is rather mild. Wetter.com lists warning levels for various wind speeds, from simple warnings to more severe severe weather warnings.

For Munich, this specifically means: all precautionary measures should be observed, even when the sun is shining. Anyone who goes outside today should keep a cool head and worry not only about the sun, but also about any other weather phenomena.

In summary, today in Munich is ideal for soaking up the sun and enjoying nature, but not without careful preparation and respect for the weather situations. So: put on your sunglasses, provide drinks and enjoy the day - but always keep the weather conditions in mind!
