Key Facts

From 1951 to 2025, long-record stations in Germany warmed by +0.30 C per decade (+0.55 F) (95 percent interval +0.22 to +0.39 C), from 244 stations measured against each station's own 1961-1990 mean.
The latest year in the series for Germany, 2025, was +1.79 C against the 1961-1990 mean.
In Germany the daily maximum rose faster than the daily minimum, by 0.11 C per decade (the two intervals overlap).
Of 344 stations in Germany with at least 50 complete years of record, 173 had 2024 as their warmest year.
In Germany, the mean annual temperature of 221 stations changed by +1.65 C between the 1961-1990 and 2011-2025 periods.

Warming

Germany, against 1961-1990

Annual mean temperature of the long-record stations in Germany as a difference from each station's own 1961-1990 mean, 1951 to 2025. 244 stations in 5 grid cells of 5 by 5 degrees, area weighted. Years with too little coverage are left blank and the line or columns are not drawn across the gap; the earliest and latest years can rest on fewer of these stations than the middle years. The station set does not change from year to year. Zero line: each station's own 1961-1990 mean.

From 1951 to 2025, the daily maximum in Germany changed by +0.36 C per decade (+0.65 F) (95 percent interval +0.26 to +0.46 C) and the daily minimum by +0.25 C per decade (+0.45 F) (95 percent interval +0.17 to +0.33 C), from 244 stations.

The daily maximum rose faster, by 0.11 C per decade more than the daily minimum; the two intervals overlap, so the data do not separate them.

The day-night range (daily maximum minus daily minimum) changed by +0.11 C per decade (95 percent interval +0.06 to +0.17 C), which means the range widened.

Trends per decade

Trends in the daily maximum, the daily minimum and the day-night range, Germany
Measure	Trend per decade (C)	95% interval (C)	Years	Stations
Daily maximum	+0.36	+0.26 to +0.46	1951 to 2025	244
Daily minimum	+0.25	+0.17 to +0.33	1951 to 2025	244
Day-night range (maximum minus minimum)	+0.11	+0.06 to +0.17	1951 to 2025	244

The day-night range is the daily maximum minus the daily minimum, so a falling range means the minimum rose by more than the maximum. Intervals allow for year to year persistence in the series.

Hot Days, Warm Nights and Frost Days by Decade: Germany

Up to 181 stations per measure, fixed sets

In Germany, the mean number of days with a daily maximum at or above 30 C (86 F) per year at 181 stations rose from 4.0 to 11.2 between the 1960s and the 2010s; the 2020s so far (6 years) average 11.7.
In Germany, the mean number of days with a daily maximum at or above 35 C (95 F) per year at 181 stations rose from 0.1 to 1.2 between the 1960s and the 2010s; the 2020s so far (6 years) average 1.1.
In Germany, the mean number of days with a daily maximum at or above 40 C (104 F) per year at 181 stations was 0.0 in both between the 1960s and the 2010s; the 2020s so far (6 years) average 0.0.
In Germany, the mean number of warm nights, with a daily minimum at or above 20 C (68 F) per year at 181 stations rose from 0.1 to 0.7 between the 1960s and the 2010s; the 2020s so far (6 years) average 0.5.
In Germany, the mean number of frost days, with a daily minimum at or below 0 C (32 F) per year at 181 stations fell from 100.8 to 84.3 between the 1960s and the 2010s; the 2020s so far (6 years) average 73.7.
In Germany, the mean number of ice days, with a daily maximum at or below 0 C (32 F) per year at 181 stations fell from 34.9 to 21.4 between the 1960s and the 2010s; the 2020s so far (6 years) average 11.8.

Days at or above 30 C

Mean days with a daily maximum at or above 30 C (86 F) per year, by decade (1960s to 2020s), Germany. The same 181 stations are in every decade: each has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so a change in the station mix cannot move the bars. The 2020s are not over: 6 years so far.

Days at or above 35 C

Mean days with a daily maximum at or above 35 C (95 F) per year, by decade (1960s to 2020s), Germany. The same 181 stations are in every decade: each has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so a change in the station mix cannot move the bars. The 2020s are not over: 6 years so far.

Days at or above 40 C

Mean days with a daily maximum at or above 40 C (104 F) per year, by decade (1960s to 2020s), Germany. The same 181 stations are in every decade: each has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so a change in the station mix cannot move the bars. The 2020s are not over: 6 years so far.

Tropical nights (min at or above 20 C)

Mean warm nights, with a daily minimum at or above 20 C (68 F) per year, by decade (1960s to 2020s), Germany. The same 181 stations are in every decade: each has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so a change in the station mix cannot move the bars. The 2020s are not over: 6 years so far.

Frost days (min at or below 0 C)

Mean frost days, with a daily minimum at or below 0 C (32 F) per year, by decade (1960s to 2020s), Germany. The same 181 stations are in every decade: each has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so a change in the station mix cannot move the bars. The 2020s are not over: 6 years so far.

Ice days (max at or below 0 C)

Mean ice days, with a daily maximum at or below 0 C (32 F) per year, by decade (1960s to 2020s), Germany. The same 181 stations are in every decade: each has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so a change in the station mix cannot move the bars. The 2020s are not over: 6 years so far.

Each measure counts days in complete years only. A station is in a measure's set when it has complete years in every decade from the 1960s, so each chart compares the same places over time. A grey bar is a decade that is not over.

Heavy Rain and Dry Spells by Decade: Germany

342 stations in the annual rain series

In Germany, annual rain at 342 stations is shown as a percent difference from each station's own 1961-1990 mean, for 75 years from 1951 to 2025.
The trend in annual rain is 0.0 percent per decade (95 percent interval -1.4 to +1.4), fitted to 75 years from 1951 to 2025. The interval includes zero, so the series does not separate a trend from year to year variation.
In Germany, the share of a year's rain that fell in its wettest five days rose from 8.6 to 9.1 percent between the 1960s and the 2020s at 256 stations.
In Germany, the mean number of days with 25 mm (1.0 in) or more of rain per year rose from 2.83 to 2.96 between the 1960s and the 2020s.
In Germany, the mean number of days with 50 mm (2.0 in) or more of rain per year rose from 0.22 to 0.25 between the 1960s and the 2020s.
In Germany, the mean number of days with 100 mm (3.9 in) or more of rain per year rose from 0.00 to 0.01 between the 1960s and the 2020s.
In Germany, the mean longest dry spell of the year, in days with less than 1 mm of rain in a row, rose from 20.5 to 22.9 days between the 1960s and the 2020s, over the same 256 stations in every decade.
