According to the current weather forecast, thick flakes will fall above an altitude of about 300 meters. It's currently snowing heavily along the main Taunus ridge. By Monday evening, 10-15 cm of new snow is expected, with up to 25 cm expected in sheltered areas.
Particularly in the Feldberg region, deep winter road conditions are to be expected due to snow, slush, and freezing wetness. However, temperatures will also drop well below freezing in the following days. During the day, pure sunshine and a dreamy winter backdrop will entice you outside.
