The continued high temperatures in Baden-Württemberg are a significant challenge for the population and the environment. The German Weather Service (DWD) has warned in good time before the threatening heat wave, which is already ensuring a summer increase in temperatures.
prediction and recommendations of the DWD
Today, temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius will be achieved in many regions of the country. Especially in the west, on the Rhine, even local maximum values of up to 35 degrees could be recorded. According to a spokesman for the DWD, this could be the hottest day of the year. The previous record was measured on June 29 with 34.8 degrees in Obersulm-Willsbach.
climatic conditions and effects
In addition to the heat, the high humidity brings with it an uncomfortable feeling of humids. In Südbaden, especially in the Lörrach region, a "tropical night" even speaks in which the temperatures will not fall below 20 degrees.
potential dangers: thunderstorms and rain
In the coming days, however, a change in the weather is also expected. The first rain showers and thunderstorms are announced.

These thunderstorms could be accompanied by stormy gusts with speeds of up to 70 kilometers per hour.
preparation and security of the citizens
It is now important for citizens to prepare for the upcoming days. In addition to the well -known advice such as drinking enough and sun protection, people with existing health problems should listen to their bodies. The combination of heat and moist air can increase health risks.
conclusion: an attentive eye on the weather
The forecasts not only represent a challenge for health, but also ask to observe the weather carefully.
