black ice warnings and traffic safety

The storm headquarters reports of black ice rain warnings that were proclaimed for Germany. Sleeping rain arises when rain is immediately freezing on frozen surface, which can lead to dangerous driving conditions. The warnings are divided into preliminary warnings (yellow) and acute warnings, whereby the acute warnings are divided into three stages: orange for light to moderate smooth ice formation, red for strong and violet for extreme smooth ice formation. The dangers from black ice rain are often not immediately recognizable, which is why it is advised to caution the streets of Germany, especially in the case of forecast smoothness.

meteorologists of the storm center observe and update these warnings manually in order to keep the traffic situation on motorways and roadways as well as the conditions for road users and winter service.
