After a few days without rain, another storm front follows, which is approaching Bavaria.

The DWD expects severe thunderstorms coming from the south in the evening.

Munich - It was not until Wednesday (July 28) that severe thunderstorms * passed through the south of Upper Bavaria.

Storms with heavy rain and hurricane-like gusts have covered roofs there, damaged buildings and flooded streets.

In the Rosenheim district, a church tower was even in danger of collapsing *.

For this evening (July 30th) the German Meteorological Service has again issued a “advance information for severe thunderstorms”.

Weather in Bavaria: Heavy thunderstorms come from Switzerland and the Alps to the Free State

"From the evening onwards, heavy thunderstorms are expected from Switzerland and the Alps," writes the DWD in its advance notice.

The thunderstorms move northeast to east to Bavaria.

In the further course they will probably grow together "to a larger thunderstorm or heavy rain area".

There is therefore a local risk of heavy rain * with up to 40 liters per square meter within an hour.

Heavy squalls and hail three centimeters in diameter can also occur.

The DWD points out that the advance information serves to enable the timely preparation of protective measures.

"Thunderstorms with the side effects mentioned typically occur very locally and usually only hit a few places with full intensity," says the weather service.

Acute warnings are therefore issued promptly if necessary.

The DWD's report is currently valid from 6 p.m. on the edge of the Alps until 4 a.m.
