Chiemsee today: Rain, wind and hardly any sun

Monday (11.05.2026) remains unsettled at Chiemsee: Rain phases and showers move through for long stretches, accompanied by noticeable wind. The sun hardly stands a chance against the dense cloud cover.

During the day, maximum temperatures of around 15 degrees are reached, at night temperatures drop to as low as 6 degrees. Anyone traveling around the lake should prepare for wet sections and gusts.

In the morning and midday: frequent rain, isolated thunderstorms possible

Even in the morning, occasional light showers are possible, with isolated thunderstorms. Temperatures range between 13 and 15 degrees. The precipitation risk for this period is given as 90 percent, with a precipitation amount of 2.4 l/m² indicated.

At midday it remains gray, with persistent light rain setting in—accompanied by windy weather. Temperatures again reach up to 15 degrees (12 to 15 degrees are mentioned around midday), and due to wind and wetness, it may feel cooler at times. The precipitation risk remains at 90 percent, with the forecast precipitation amount at 8.8 l/m².

In the evening and at night: brief relief, then rain again

In the evening, there is hardly any clearing: It remains heavily overcast, with temperatures between 12 and 13 degrees. The precipitation risk drops to 45 percent during this period.

At night, the rain increases again. Occasional light precipitation is expected again with windy weather. Temperatures fall from about 11 degrees to as low as 6 degrees. The precipitation risk rises again to 90 percent, with 2.1 l/m² indicated.

Westerly wind with strong gusts

The wind mostly blows from the west at 9 to 18 km/h, and in the evening it may shift to southwest. Gusts reach 28 to 46 km/h—in particular around midday and at night, it will feel noticeably rougher.

Classification of the forecast: location-based time periods

The information is formulated as a point-in-time forecast, i.e., a location-based prediction for individual periods of the day and hours, as also described by the German Weather Service for such time windows. Accordingly, the stated probabilities and amounts of precipitation refer to the specified periods (or hourly).

All in all, Monday at Chiemsee remains rather cool, often wet and at times windy—rain gear and a windproof cover are sensibly planned for walks along the shore or on the water.
