Danger of black ice for Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen: Heed warnings early!
Things will be turbulent in the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen region on Sunday, November 23rd: The German Weather Service (DWD) has issued a black ice warning, valid from 6 p.m. until Monday morning at 6 a.m. The forecast points to a weather pattern that initially began with snowfall and then changed to rain, with the freezing precipitation on cold ground potentially causing slippery conditions.
However, the DWD emphasizes that there are uncertainties in the weather forecast. Residents are urged to closely monitor weather reports and prepare for possible changes. According to the latest reports, precipitation is expected to move in from the west on Monday night. This could lead to dangerous black ice conditions, which could lead to traffic problems, especially in the early morning hours. For current recommendations for action, the DWD refers to its website.
Changed weather conditions
In addition to the black ice warning, the weather forecast reports light snowfall from 3 p.m. on Sunday until 3 a.m. on Monday. Amounts of up to 5 cm of fresh snow are possible here. The risk of slipping on the streets is also emphasized; Drivers and pedestrians should adapt their behavior accordingly. The official warnings advise you to avoid driving in order to prevent possible accidents.
The cold brings not only precipitation but also frost. Another warning indicates light frost down to -4 ° C, which is valid from 11 a.m. until Monday morning. This could lead to frost damage, which is why frost protection measures are also recommended here.
The effects of the weather
The meteorological conditions are diverse. The DWD also warns that the risk of black ice in southern Bavaria may last until Monday morning. Particularly in the north-west and west of Germany, a noticeable cooling with permanent frost is expected, while at higher altitudes some precipitation will fall in the form of snow. Up to 15 cm of fresh snow is possible in Franconia and the Bavarian Forest.
Wind gusts are moving in, but will decrease in intensity as Monday morning progresses. A focus is on the temperature changes, as mild air will flow into Germany from Monday night. This reduces the risk of frost and could provide some relief, although it is still expected to be slippery on Monday.
Observers and road users in the region should continue to keep abreast of developments. The situation can change quickly, with further official warnings likely to follow in the next few hours. It remains to be seen how the weather front over Bavaria behaves and what other surprises it has in store.
