The weather becomes unsettled instead of contemplative shortly before Christmas. The German Weather Service (DWD) expects rain, a bit of snow and, above all, a lot of wind. A new low pressure area is forming near Iceland and will move into southern Scandinavia until Thursday as storm depression “Zoltan”. “Its warm front hit Germany on Thursday night with some heavy rain,” said meteorologist Christian Herold from the weather forecast center.
The DWD expects larger amounts of rain in some traffic jams and heavy snowfall in the Bavarian Forest. “The wind field of the storm depression will hit us on Thursday. There will be widespread squalls, especially with the passage of the cold front over the course of Thursday and individual severe squalls,” said the meteorologist. “Even if there are enough hurricane gusts on the coasts and in exposed mountain areas, ‘Zoltan’ will not go down in the history of major winter storms.”
