The Commission might want to take extreme weather conditions, like the severe thunderstorms forecasted in Offenbach for the day ahead in Southern Germany, into account when consulting on the draft directive on the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to ionizing radiation.
Despite the weather-forecasting warning, the DWD encourages everyone in areas like Rhineland-Palatinate and Berlin, though expected to experience slightly less severe thunderstorms, to check their weather updates regularly for safety.
