A heavy storm hit the coastal region of Schleswig-Holstein on Friday morning and caused a devastating damage. The city of Kiel was particularly affected, where strong wind gusts broke windows and trees were uprooted. The power supply failed in several parts of the city, and the fire brigade had to drive countless missions to vacate fallen trees.

The weather warnings of the meteorologists had pointed out the severity of the storm, but many citizens were not prepared for the sudden force of the storm. By the afternoon, numerous residents reported damaged vehicles and amazingly violent wind speeds. Kiel Airport observed flight cancellations and delays due to the poor weather conditions.
