Extreme June heat disappears: experts speak of “redemption” - before that, there was a huge crash in Bavaria

Original article dated June 21:

Munich - Today, Monday (June 21), the summer begins in terms of the calendar.

It almost sounds like a mockery if you've occasionally dared to look at the thermometer over the past few days.

Temperatures over 30 degrees and tropical nights over 20 degrees were the order of the day.

But that should be over now.

The June heat is saying goodbye with a bang.

Strong storms passed over Bavaria

Last night there had already been a violent crash in large parts of Franconia and especially in the metropolitan region of Nuremberg. Thunderstorms and heavy rain caused the emergency services to have a restless night. For that they can probably rest today. But that doesn't mean that things will stay calm in Bavaria. The German Weather Service (DWD) has already announced new storms. This time, however, it particularly affects Swabia and parts of Upper Bavaria. Severe thunderstorms can occur here during the day. Heavy rain with up to 40 liters per square meter is possible. For this purpose, hailstones with a diameter of up to five centimeters can patter on the earth. The weather service also warns of severe gusts of wind up to 100 kilometers per hour. On Tuesday morning around 2 a.m., the ghost should be over for the time being.

Thunderstorms will be with us for the next few days.

It gets constantly cooler.

"Salvation!

The June heat extreme disappear, "writes meteorologist Dominik Jung von

qmet.de

.

His weather conclusion for June so far is already devastating.

So far the month has been an average of 4.6 degrees too warm.

“This upward deviation is indeed extreme.” Last week it was hotter than usual at the end of July or beginning of August.

But Jung gives the all-clear.

Such heat peaks should no longer occur in June.

A week with storms and heavy rain is ahead of Bavaria

Sweating is the order of the day in Bavaria.

With up to 30 degrees in Passau * it is getting really hot again.

During the night, thunderstorms and rain all over the Free State cool off a little.

Values ​​between 14 and 18 degrees are possible.

A similar spectacle on Tuesday.

While it continues to cool in the west of Bavaria, it can get around 30 degrees again in Lower Bavaria.

But here, too, it will be significantly fresher by the weekend.

If the current weather models are confirmed, the thermometer will even slide below 20 degrees on Friday in Nuremberg, for example.
