A violent foehn storm threatens in the Alps on Friday.

Then there is a change in weather in Bavaria and that brings with it “difficult road conditions”.

  • At the beginning of the meteorological winter it turned white in Bavaria.

  • At the weekend there is initially a violent foehn storm.

  • But immediately after that the next change in weather is imminent.

  • This news ticker is continuously updated.

Update from December 3, 4:04 p.m.:

Is there another

snow chaos

at the weekend

like 2018?

At that time, entire regions like the

Jachenau were

completely snowed in.

And this time, too, the weather experts predict massive snowfall in some areas and rain in lower altitudes.

According to

wetter.de,

northern Italy

,

South Tyrol

,

parts of Austria

and

Switzerland are

particularly affected

.

But also in

Bavaria

- especially near the Alps - it can snow continuously.

In

northern Italy

in particular,

there is a

risk of floods

and

mudslides

.

According to the

weather portal

, there can be

up to four meters of

fresh snow

there.

In the lowlands, the snow comes down as rain and not too scarce.

The weather experts assume a rainfall of

600 liters per square meter

in three days.

That's how much rain falls in one year in Berlin.

However,

Bavaria

is far from

such an apocalyptic weather situation

.

The Free State may even be completely spared by Tief Wenke.

As

wetter.net

writes, the

path of

the snowfall areas is

unusual.

Therefore, it is hardly possible to predict where and how much precipitation will come down.

The weather expert Franziska Polak assumes that the low will

fall

over Germany

in

three waves

.

The first wave already reached

Baden-Württemberg

and

Hesse

in the night from Friday to Saturday

.

Here sleet and slippery threats.

The second wave comes on Saturday and runs in a band between the

Alps

and

low mountain

ranges across Germany.

There is

sleet

,

freezing rain

and

snow in the

luggage

.

The motto here too: get off the gas!

A third wave breaks over us on Sunday night.

This once again brings abundant rainfall until the

weather situation

relaxes again

on Sunday afternoon

.

Weather in Bavaria: Snow masses predicted for the Alpine region

(First report)

Munich - The centenary calendar * predicts snow and cold for the beginning of December 2020 - and the forecast seems to be correct.

"The most exciting weather * will be in southern Germany over the next few days," says

meteorologist Georg Haas

 from

wetter.com

, beginning

his forecast.

The

Alpine region

is affected

.

There is now “a portion of

fresh snow

in the night on Thursday.” Then the sun

sets

through - “and then comes the

hair dryer

.” This would then quickly clean the snow away again, “at temperatures sometimes over ten degrees in the Foehn storm *. ”But that was not all:“ There is a threat of a hurricane on the mountains above, ”warns Haas.

In the night from Wednesday to Thursday,

minimum temperatures

of -1 to -9 degrees are reached

in the Free State

.

During the day, the temperatures "climb" to -2 to +3 degrees.

Then, according to Haas, comes the

“violent foehn storm in the Alps”

.

Weather in Bavaria: Deep ensures snow at the weekend - the Allgäu is particularly affected

As a result - when the

foehn current leaves

- comes the

influence of the next low

.

That in turn ensures snow * on weekends, especially on Saturdays.

"Partly really strong, with correspondingly difficult road conditions." The entire Alpine arc must prepare for "

catastrophic amounts of snow

".

This is also confirmed by the

wetter.de

portal

and warns of a "snow bomb".

Especially in the

Allgäu

there is a threat of "heavy snowfall".

Slippery and freezing wetness are possible.

Away from the foehn areas, there could be 20 to 50 centimeters of fresh snow.

But it can snow again as far as Munich.

#Snowflakes will fall regionally by Friday.

# Smoothness also remains an issue in some places.
