Chiemsee: First sun, then significantly higher risk of rain in the evening

Around Lake Chiemsee, Tuesday (May 5) starts off friendly: After a clear morning, it remains mostly dry throughout the day. As the afternoon progresses, cloud cover increases – in the evening, the probability of light rain rises significantly.

The forecast predicts mild temperatures between 14 and 23 degrees for the day. Up to seven hours of sunshine are possible in total before the weather becomes more changeable later. Anyone out and about in the evening should take the significantly increased risk of rain into account.

Calm and sunny in the morning

In the morning, the sky is cloudless at around 11 degrees. The risk of precipitation is 0 percent, and the wind blows weakly from the northeast at around 2 km/h. This means the day starts very calmly by the lake.

Warm at midday, increasingly cloudy

By midday, temperatures rise to up to 23 degrees. Then it is partly cloudy, with the sun only coming through at times. The risk of precipitation is 25 percent, with a westerly wind around 8 km/h. Overall, it remains mild and dry in many areas during the day.

Highest probability of rain in the evening, more relaxed again at night

In the evening, the clouds continue to thicken. Then it is cloudy, with occasional light rain possible. The temperature drops to around 20 degrees. The risk of precipitation rises to 80 percent; the hourly precipitation amount is given as 0.9 l/m². The wind blows from the west at about 13 km/h.

At night, it clears up a bit again. It remains partly cloudy at 14 to 11 degrees, and the risk of precipitation drops to 15 percent. The wind shifts to the south and remains weak at around 5 km/h. Gusts between 14 and 32 km/h are possible throughout the day.

Classification: What the figures specifically mean

The values are based on a point-in-time forecast: It describes the weather for a specific location and a set time. The probability of precipitation and the stated amount of rain also refer to each individual hour – a high risk in the evening therefore mainly means: Rain is more likely during this time window, not necessarily that it will rain continuously or extensively for a long time.
