Storm disaster threatens: tornadoes and thunderstorms strike!
The weather forecasts in Germany are currently dominated by a potentially dangerous cold front that could bring a series of storms. Severe thunderstorms were already recorded on May 28, 2025 and the weather remains tense. Thunderstorms with stormy gusts, hail and heavy rain are expected to occur, although the formation of supercells cannot be ruled out. These large and dangerous thunderstorms, first described by meteorologist Keith Browning in 1962, bring powerful squalls and, in some cases, even tornadoes. According to Merkur, it is recommended to closely monitor the weather situation.
What is particularly worrying is the fact that weather expert Kathy Schrey from wetter.net points out that there is an extremely humid and unstable air mass, which creates ideal conditions for the emergence of these dangerous weather phenomena. Already on Wednesday, May 28th, at least two tornadoes were spotted, one north of Steinau in Hesse. The increased temperatures of up to 33 degrees and the high humidity contribute to the fact that thunderstorm activity will increase sharply in the coming days tz.
What lies ahead for us?
For the coming weekend, especially on Saturday and Sunday, citizens have to prepare for further severe thunderstorms. Localized hail, squalls and heavy rain are commonplace, and the risk of long-lived and dangerous supercells forming remains. The thunderstorm situation is expected to continue until Tuesday, June 3, with the peak of severe weather activity forecast for Tuesday.
The current weather situation will be reinforced by a cold front that will hit the moist and heated air and thus create additional dynamics. This combination of high temperatures and extreme humidity creates perfect conditions for explosive weather developments. Experts warn that the dew point, which is currently between 19 and 21 degrees, will further increase the perceived humidity and worsen the situation Merkur.
