Unexpected Turnaround? Unusual Weather Conditions Make Forecasting Difficult for Experts

Meteorologists warn of severe storms with flash floods, hail, and gusts of wind in Germany. The summer is faltering in the west, while the east still experiences heat.

Cooler air masses will flow into western Germany on Wednesday, leading to severe thunderstorms. A brutal weather boundary will build up on Friday, with a temperature difference of up to 20°C between the west and east.

Uncertain forecasts make it difficult to predict the weather for the coming weekend. Baden-Württemberg faces extreme conditions with possible heavy rain, storms, and flooding after days of heat.

Record temperatures over 30 degrees and storms in North Rhine-Westphalia led to numerous fire department operations and rescues. La Niña, a weather phenomenon, could possibly cause a harsh winter in Baden-Württemberg.

The mixture of heat and storms continues, with dry and sunny conditions in the east and thunderstorms with heavy rain in the west. Berlin and Brandenburg are under a heat warning with temperatures reaching up to 33 degrees.

Extreme heat can be life-threatening, and it takes several days to acclimate to hot temperatures.
