Bitter Cold and Snowy Conditions Grip Luxembourg

Luxembourg is waking up to a deep winter chill today as temperatures hover well below freezing across the Grand Duchy. According to the latest forecast, the current temperature in Luxembourg City is around -5 °C with a RealFeel® near -10 °C, and winds from the southwest gusting at about 13 km/h. The day is expected to remain mostly cloudy with intermittent snow and flurries this afternoon, though accumulations are likely to be light. Tonight will stay cold with lows near -5 °C under partly to mostly cloudy skies.

A yellow weather warning for wintry conditions is in place, reflecting the potential for hazardous weather through the early morning hours. Overnight lows in some areas could dip as low as -8 °C to -10 °C, with feels-like temperatures plunging even further, raising the risk of frostbite on exposed skin and icy patches on roads and pavements.

As the work week continues, the cold pattern shows little sign of immediate relief. Tuesday will remain chilly with temperatures staying near or below freezing and overcast skies, while Wednesday is forecast to bring snowfall with potential accumulations of 5–10 cm and icy conditions, especially early in the day. 

These conditions are typical for January in Luxembourg, the coldest month of the year, when daily temperatures often range from just below freezing to a few degrees above, and snowfall is not uncommon, particularly in higher terrain.
