Snow chaos in Hesse: Accidents and flight cancellations through smoothness!

in Hesse has occurred in the past few days due to snow and ice slid. Laut Berichten von fr.de führten die meisten dieser Unfälle lediglich zu Blechschäden. The German Weather Service has issued warnings of black ice for the government districts of Gießen and Kassel. In particular, the police headquarters Fulda registered three smoothness accidents in the morning. In addition, a truck on the Kirchheimer Dreieck got stuck at the exit from Autobahn 7 to Autobahn 4.

In Central Hesse, the police counted a total of eight accidents on snow and ice-smooth roads until morning, also primarily with damage to property. On Autobahn 3 near Niedernhausen, a truck came across due to smoothness. No major problems were known in the Taunus at this point, but clear vehicles were in use. Smooth -related accidents also occurred in southern Hesse. During the course of the day, it is increasingly expected due to freezing rain.

traffic disruptions and weather warnings

The weather conditions also led to great impairments in travel. At the Frankfurt Airport, according to information from hessenschau.de 120 of 1,090 flights canceled. Deutsche Bahn also reported long delays in long -distance transport, especially in the Frankfurt area. Weather warnings were spent on parts of Hesse because snow could pass into freezing rain in the morning. This also led to several smaller traffic accidents in the Rhein-Main area and South Hesse, including an incident in which a driver overturned and was slightly injured on a federal road.

The police in South Hesse reported seven weather -related accidents between 3 a.m. and 9 a.m., mostly with minor damage. A severe weather warning was pronounced, especially for the East Hessian counties of Fulda, Vogelsberg and Hersfeld-Rotenburg as well as the Schwalm-Eder district. All in all, meteorologists advise you to drive by car or leave the house when it is avoidable.
