Hannover — Weather today

Hannover is in north central Germany, in Lower Saxony, on the Leine River. A 24 hour forecast is useful here because the city combines a busy centre, exhibition districts, parks, Maschsee lake and green corridors around the urban area. Cloud cover, wind, visibility and rain chances can shift through the day, especially on open squares and near the water.

Hannover is usually classified as having a temperate oceanic climate in the Koppen system (Cfb), with mild winters and moderately warm summers. Summer daytime temperatures often sit around 22-25°C (72-77°F), while winter is commonly about 0-5°C (32-41°F). Precipitation is possible all year, summer more often brings showers and thunderstorms, and winter can bring damp air, fog, sleet, icy surfaces and short snow periods.

Before visiting the Herrenhausen Royal Gardens, the New Town Hall, Maschsee lake, Erlebnis Zoo or the Messe exhibition district, check temperature, wind and precipitation. The hourly forecast helps choose a good time for walks, business trips, museum visits, parks and evening routes when rain, cold wind or fog may quickly change plans.
