Weather Cologne: Cloudy but dry – this is how the end of the day will be!

June 3, 2025 will bring a mixed weather picture in Cologne. From this afternoon we can expect cloudy but dry weather conditions with maximum temperatures of 23°C. The chance of rain is 4%, it is very likely that it will stay dry. During the night the temperatures fell to a pleasantly mild 14°C in Brauweiler West 2 and 15°C in Cologne-Stammheim, with a light to moderate southeast wind with fresh gusts blowing through the air with a breeze. As Digital Daily reports, Tuesday will also remain dry, with the maximum values ​​being 20°C in Brauweiler West 2 and 21°C in Cologne-Stammheim. What's the catch? You should even be happy for the end of the day - at around 5 p.m. the temperature will be 20°C in Brauweiler and 21°C in Cologne.

At night it will be a little colder again, with lows of 13°C on Thursday night, while dense clouds will envelop the city. Unfortunately, Thursday will bring not only clouds but also moderate rain, which is expected to push temperatures down to 17°C. The rain will continue on Friday: almost completely covered and also with temperatures around 18°C. What awaits us the next day? The wind remains weak to moderate from the south, although the gusts continue to pick up strongly. This is a clear indication of the weather changes that lie ahead - especially as the average temperature for this day has been 24°C for the last 20 years. The year 2024, however, brought 22°C, and five years ago the people of Cologne had to be content with 18°C.

A look at the precipitation values

After looking at the precipitation data, we can't avoid one thing: as of today, June 3rd, we are averaging 2 mm of precipitation over the last 20 years. If you compare this with the values ​​from last year, when there was no precipitation, or the 3 mm from five years ago, it is clear that the weather is starting to cool down again, but should not go too far into the water. But with so much changeable weather, it's no wonder that the people of Cologne like to have an umbrella with them. According to Wetterkontor, this statement is based on long-term precipitation values.

How does the weather compare in historical context?

For the statisticians among us: The data from the German Weather Service shows that it is interesting to look at old values, especially the seasonal and monthly averages. These help us understand how the weather has changed over the years. Average values ​​over different time periods - including deviations from the average values ​​- are of particular interest. Exact figures can be found in the CDC (Climate Data Center) of the German Weather Service.

Cologne may not always have had the best luck in terms of weather, but one thing is certain: the city has its own charm, whether under rays of sunshine or gray clouds. Now all we can do is hope that the temperatures and precipitation are in line with the weather forecasts!
