Weather report 18 October 2026, 12:00

The weekend rain has cleared Hamburg: the afternoon stays dry, but the cloud stays thick and temperatures struggle to 12–13 °C, with no sunshine on the cards today. A fresh easterly to north-easterly wind blows at 15–18 km/h with gusts near 35 km/h, which you will notice on the Elbe and on exposed stretches. By evening it eases and the temperature slips to around 10 °C.

Tonight stays mostly cloudy with the odd clearer spell. At 6–7 °C it turns noticeably cooler than the day, and no rain is expected.

Monday starts fresh at 7–8 °C and stays dry until midday. The cloud breaks up and the afternoon brings longer sunny spells, with nearly nine hours of sunshine forecast for the day as a whole.

Tuesday stays similarly cool at around 11 °C but largely dry, with more sunshine. Rain returns on Wednesday, with about 11 mm in the forecast. Thursday and Friday turn windy with gusts up to 48 km/h, and the weekend looks changeable and blustery too.

Saturday's review data show 12.6 mm of rain, the morning added a little more, and the city has been dry since midday. The bigger change is the temperature: the next few nights drop to 4–6 °C, after a Friday night that held at 13 °C. Wednesday's rain and the strengthening wind from Thursday will make autumn feel more insistent again. Whether the weekend settles down is still open.

The wind comes from east to north-east at 15–18 km/h, gusting to 36 km/h. Crosswinds will be noticeable on the Elbe bridges and on open stretches of road. It eases through the evening and picks up again around Monday midday with gusts near 32 km/h.
