Saturday may become a freezing day after February's coldest night
Denmark is expected to experience a freezing day on Saturday with temperatures likely remaining below freezing for 24 hours after the coldest night of February.
Denmark's meteorological institute forecasts that Saturday could be a freezing day, with temperatures not expected to rise above freezing for 24 hours. This follows the coldest night of February, where temperatures dipped to minus 13 degrees Celsius, marking the lowest recorded this month. The southeast and mid-Jutland regions experienced particularly low temperatures during this time.
Meteorologist Mette Wagner noted that while it is likely to not see temperatures above freezing, there may be some variations in localized areas where temperatures could rise slightly. The highest temperature recorded by Saturday morning was just 0.6 degrees below freezing. Overall, the weekend is anticipated to remain cold but relatively calm, with mild winds and occasional sunshine throughout the day.
Residents are advised to bundle up as both Saturday and Sunday will see day temperatures hovering between the freezing point and minus three degrees. Mette Wagner emphasizes the importance of dressing appropriately for the weather, making it clear that the cold conditions will persist into the following day as well, suggesting that Denmarks' winter is still firmly in play despite the upcoming sunny intervals.
