 Conversation 5: The Weather |
| Sophie Gerland |
What is the weather like here in Berlin? |
| Barbara Zacharias |
In summer it is fairly hot and dry. In winter it is often foggy and very cold - particularly in the night. Every now and then we get a lot of snow and ice. |
| Sophie Gerland |
I can imagine that! |
| Barbara Zacharias |
In spring it is warm but often stormy and in autumn it is cool and cloudy - we have rain almost all the time. |
| Sophie Gerland |
And what's the weather like today? Bad, isn't it? |
| Barbara Zacharias |
At the moment it's mild. It's sunny but also windy. I can't see any black clouds! |
| Sophie Gerland |
What's the temperature? |
| Barbara Zacharias |
Don't know. It's probably about fourteen degrees. Hopefully the nice weather will come. Let's listen to the weather forecast on the radio!
