Intense rainfall and stormy conditions trigger extreme weather events - Torrential downpours and fierce winds mark the onslaught of these tempestuous weather events.
Hey there! Grab your umbrella, folks, because Saxony is about to get a dose of some unpredictable weather! The German Weather Service (DWD) has some less-than-ideal forecasts in store for the region, with rain and storms looming until the end of the week.
Kickstarting the soggy week on Wednesday, we'll see a mostly sunny morning, but don't let the clear skies fool you. An approaching low-pressure system will spoil the party by the afternoon, bringing up to 25 liters per square meter of rain, storm gusts reaching up to 80 kilometers per hour, and even a bit of lightning with thunderstorms and hail thrown in. So pack a sweatshirt, too; temperatures will range from 24 to a balmy 28 degrees, promising sweltering, sticky days throughout. The stormy weather front will linger into the night, with the Vogtland and Upper Lusatia regions experiencing heavy rain and gusty winds even into the wee hours, according to the DWD.
Don't pack your bags just yet, though! Thunderstorms will continue to grace Thursday and Friday, lightening up at night as calm weather takes over. Temperatures will fluctuate, dropping to 20 to 23 degrees on Thursday before reaching a peak of up to 26 degrees on Friday. There's a silver lining; while storms, rain, and wind will all be on the decline by the workweek's end, they won't be completely absent from the picture just yet.
So brace yourselves, Saxony! City of Dresden, Vogtland, and Upper Lusatia residents: it's going to be a rainy, windy, and somewhat stormy ride until Friday! Keep an eye on the forecast and stay safe out there!
