On Monday there can be a violent bang in large parts of Bavaria.
The German Weather Service warns of severe thunderstorms in the south and east.
Munich – A cold front is on its way to Bavaria.
It may not arrive on Monday, June 27th, but it is already sending the first harbingers to Bavaria.
These don't get along at all with the heated air of the weekend.
The collision of the two air masses will therefore lead to severe thunderstorms in large parts of Bavaria during the day.
The area around the G7 summit at Schloss Elmau is also affected.

Weather in Bavaria: Thunderstorms in the south-east half of Bavaria from the afternoon
The low "Rebecca" including the associated cold front makes its way to Bavaria.
In tow it has a "small thunderstorm low", writes

.
It goes on to say that "in the 'steamy air', thunderstorms form more frequently over the course of the day between the Baltic Sea and the Alps".
The German Weather Service (DWD), on the other hand, does not only speak of a small thunderstorm low.
Here one warns of severe thunderstorms that can pass over Bavaria in the course of the afternoon.

The southeast of the Free State is particularly affected.
Around Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Elmau Castle, where the world's political elite is currently staying, there can be a lot of banging, not only at the negotiating table.
From the afternoon into the night there can be storms with heavy rain with amounts of around 30 liters per square meter in one hour.
In addition, it can hail.
The DWD predicts severe gusts of wind with wind speeds of around 100 km/h.
“Extreme heavy rain of more than 40 l/sqm in a short period of time, hail of 3 cm and hurricane-like gusts of 110 km/h cannot be ruled out.
Main focus probably southern, at night eastern Bavaria.”
The weather in Bavaria remains changeable - repeated thunderstorms and rain
The coming days will be similar.
In any case, the heat of the weekend is over for now.
On Tuesday the thermometer in Munich does not rise above 24 degrees.
In the southern half, Passau takes the lead with 27 degrees.
In the north, Bamberg and Schweinfurt are at the top with 28 degrees (values:

).
Storms are possible throughout Bavaria, with the exception of the extreme north.
The changeable weather conditions will not change much on Wednesday either.
Only at the weekend does things calm down a bit.
