Overview
- The Deutscher Wetterdienst issued warnings for night-to-Sunday freezing temperatures and glatteis that have already caused road accidents and urged drivers to take care in the morning hours.
- DWD projects repeated rain from 15–22 November with common 48–72 hour totals of 30–50 l/m² and modelled extremes of 100–150 l/m² in windward 'staulagen'.
- Forecasters warn of stürmische to schwere Sturmböen in exposed mountain ridges and on the coast, with gusts around 60–80 km/h in kammlagen and higher gusts possible on exposed peaks.
- Authorities say repeated heavy precipitation could raise river levels and increase runoff, but they stress that whether local critical flooding occurs depends on the exact low tracks and remains uncertain.
- Meteorologists note substantial model spread on storm timing and intensity, so they advise following DWD updates and local warnings as the situation evolves over the coming days.
