Be aware that these areas are more prone to thunderstorms, as they're located in the Eastern part of Germany. In Bautzen, the thunderstorm risk is particularly high due to its location in the South East[1][5]. Despite no specific warnings, the Saxon Switzerland-Ore Mountains, located near the stormy regions, may also experience some weather capers[1].
Current Inclement Weather Warnings:
- Thunderclaps: Heavy thunderstorms with hail and violent wind gusts are expected in the south-eastern parts of Germany, which could affect the South East of Saxony[2][5].
- Torrential downpours: There's a chance of local, heavy rain, especially in conjunction with thunderstorms[2].
- Violent wind gusts and hail: These are also possible in some parts of Germany, particularly where severe thunderstorms are forecast[2][5].
Remember to check the latest warnings directly from the DWD or another reliable meteorological service, as the weather can change swiftly[3][4]. Stay safe out there, Storm Chasers!
