Red danger warning: – Snow chaos in Germany

The German newspaper reported that there was “winter chaos” at Munich Airport, with snow causing major problems on Friday afternoon picture.

Snowy weather is expected to continue in southern Germany. German meteorologists at Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) reported that 40cm of snow could fall in parts of Bavaria within 12 hours.

Snowfall in the south is now increasing significantly. It has fallen between five and nine centimeters in the past few hours. Locally, heavy snow will continue to fall over the next few hours, DWD meteorologists write x/twitter.

Earlier this week, the Meteorological Institute returned home to very little shock to its German colleagues, who pressed the red button ahead of the snowy weather and sent out a danger warning at red level.

However, at that time, German meteorologists had “only” 10-15 cm of snow in their forecast.

With a visibility of 40 centimeters, meteorologists in the German state believe that weather conditions are now expected to be “extreme,” according to Bild newspaper.
