On Friday evening, temperatures of over 30 degrees were already measured near Heidelberg. However, the warm air flow affects wetter air layers, which increases the likelihood of thunderstorms. The middle of Germany and up to the Alps, where heavy rain, hail and gusts of wind are predicted up to 100 km/h, are particularly affected on Saturday. In eastern Germany, the risk of hail and heavy gusts of wind will be particularly high, while there are less likely wind gusts in the southwestern mountain country.
