Winterchaos in Berlin: Snow front brings traffic chaos and cold!

A dramatic change in weather is imminent: in Berlin and Brandenburg, winter could now play a concise role. Weather expert Dominik Jung von Wetter.net warns that a snow front is approaching that could cause considerable traffic disruptions from Wednesday. "Where the snow chip strikes, massive disorders can occur on streets, rails and airports," explains Jung. It becomes particularly dangerous at the air mass border, where cold and warm air meet, which leads to the appearance of large rainfall, as is emphasized at Wetter.net. The temperatures can drop to minus 3 degrees, which asks the residents to get warm.

expected snow and weather chaos

For the period from 6. to January 9, Jung previously says that an impressive collection of new snow is possible of up to 20 centimeters. This means not only charming winter landscapes, but also smooth roads and a high risk of traffic accidents. In the affected regions that range from North Rhine-Westphalia to Thuringia to Saxony and Brandenburg, winter may lead to real chaos. According to Jung, it could be both harmful snowfall and dangerous ice rain, since the temperatures are exactly the freezing point. With such a mixture, caution is required!

While parts of Germany sink under a blanket of snow, it remains mild and rainy in the south, which increases the risk of flood situations in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg. The striking air mass limit continues to ensure extreme weather. Whether fresh snow or rain floods, Germany is currently a weather field of contrasts and surprises. But don't panic: the situation could calm down from the coming weekend, but winter is not over yet, so that the streets could continue to be smooth. According to the weather expert, it is essential to be particularly careful in this turbulent weather phase and to take current warnings seriously.
