News Article: Firefighting Efforts in Neuss and Reuschenberger Busch During Thunderstorm
On May 31, 2025, North Rhine-Westphalia experienced heavy thunderstorms, and the city of Neuss was no exception. However, the city experienced relatively calm weather conditions compared to other areas, according to the fire department of Neuss.
The most notable weather-related incident in Neuss occurred at around 9:00 PM, when a tree caught fire in Reuschenberger Busch due to a lightning strike. The firefighting efforts were extensive, lasting for over three hours, due to difficult accessibility and intense glowing spots in the tree trunk. The full-time fire brigade was fully occupied with this incident.
In addition to the incident in Reuschenberger Busch, the Neuss fire department dealt with two more weather-related incidents within the city. Two trees fell in Furth and Rosellen due to strong winds, and the emergency services quickly cleared the roads in both areas.
Despite these incidents, the Neuss fire department did not have to provide additional resources for mutual aid within the city. However, they did provide mutual aid to the city of Krefeld from 11:53 PM until 8:00 AM, dealing with numerous weather-related incidents outside of Neuss.
