Hurricane Kirk brings rain and storm: Hamburg in front of storm surge!

The foothills of the former hurricane "Kirk" bring turbulent weather conditions in northern Germany! The region awaits a lot of rain and heavy gusts of wind on Thursday. Weather experts warn of a possible storm surge in Hamburg, where the water levels could increase over 1.50 meters. The low pressure area not only brings wetness, but also warm air - temperatures up to 20 degrees are possible in Lower Saxony!

Already on Thursday night, the rainy area moves rapidly through the Emsland, occasionally up to 60 liters of rain per square meter. While the first violent wind gusts in the southwest use, the storm can be felt throughout the north. The exact course of the deep could influence the intensity of the gusts of wind, but annoying floods, such as the popular fish market in Hamburg, seem to be inevitable.
