Between the Alster and the Elbe
Rathausmarkt sits between buildings; the Landungsbrücken are right on the waterfront. For a walk, check wind and gusts as well as the rain symbol.

Plan the next few hours
Check rain and gusts first, then the hourly outlook. For the evening, sunset, moon position and cloud cover show how much daylight remains and whether you might see the stars.
