Precipitation Patterns

"Regierungsbezirk Tübingen is characterized by a moderately high precipitation rate throughout the year, with autumn and summer being the wettest seasons, while early spring typically brings drier weather."

• Total annual precipitation averages roughly 700-900 mm.
• Summer months may experience short, heavy bursts of rainfall, oftentimes including thunderstorms.

Wind and Sunlight

Wind patterns in Regierungsbezirk Tübingen largely result from the westerlies, which bring moist air from the Atlantic Ocean across Central Europe. However, the presence of the Swabian Alb and the Black Forest can influence local wind conditions, leading to localized weather phenomena like föhn winds that can cause rapid temperature variations.

• Average sunshine hours range from 1.5-2 hours per day in December and January to approximately 7-8 hours per day in July and August.
• Protected valleys may exhibit less wind activity whereas exposed areas, particularly on the Swabian Alb, can experience stronger winds.

Extremes and Climate Change

As in many regions of the world, Regierungsbezirk Tübingen is not immune to the influences of climate change. There is an observed trend towards warmer annual temperatures, which can affect the local ecosystems, as well as agriculture and viticulture, both significant to the region. More frequent heat waves and extreme weather events, including heavy precipitation and storms, have been documented.
