The southeastern half of the region can expect particularly heavy and prolonged rainfall, with thunderstorms still a possibility.

Why is this weather happening? The current weather pattern is driven by a low-pressure system moving across Western Europe, bringing with it a series of fronts laden with moisture. Who is affected? All of Baden-Württemberg will experience the effects of this system, though the southeastern region is expected to receive the heaviest rainfall. What is the impact? Residents should anticipate travel disruptions due to reduced visibility and potential flooding in low-lying areas. Outdoor activities may also be impacted. How does it end? While Thursday offers a brief respite, the DWD forecasts a return to colder and wetter conditions over the weekend, indicating the low-pressure system will linger or be replaced by another, extending the period of unsettled weather.
