Storm alarm! Thunderstorms and hail threaten in Munich today!

In Munich, a turbulent storming evening is based, which not only affects the weather, but also the DFB international match between Germany and Portugal. The German Weather Service (DWD) already warns of extreme storm risk: humid air from the Biskaya meets a cold front that could lead to violent thunderstorms, heavy rain and hail. The temperatures could even reach up to 27 degrees, which further heats up the humid air. Towards the evening, a whole spectrum of weather symptoms is expected that could endanger the kick -off at 9 p.m.

The forecasts of the DWD are not entirely uniform: While a model assumes that the storm could subside around 8 p.m., another expects it to stop until 10 p.m. The focus is particularly on the areas between Swabia and the Bavarian Forest, where the highest storm warning level 4 (extreme storm) was proclaimed for the coming hours. The DWD specifically speaks of hailstormers with diameters between 5 and 10 cm, as well as selective heavy rain, which could reach up to 30 liters per square meter.
