Winter weather alarm: Law glading in Schleswig-Holstein until Monday!

Ostholstein, Deutschland - The German Weather Service has published a smoothness warning for Schleswig-Holstein. This applies until Saturday, February 15, 2025, at 11 a.m. and affects the districts of Plön, Rendsburg-Eckernförde, Ostholstein, Segeberg as well as the cities of Kiel and Neumünster. The warning was pronounced due to the expected risk of slipping on the streets, which can arise from frozen water or snow. The causes of the existing winter glasses also include stuck snow, ripe and slush. Winter tires are important, but not sufficiently with black ice. Foresight driving and driving skills are crucial to minimize the risk of accidents in road traffic, such as kn-online.de reported.

In addition, the weather service provides information about the current weather conditions in northern Germany. After several days with snowfall, a colder and drier weekend can be expected. The temperatures drop to -6 degrees Celsius at night and can be up to -10 degrees in higher locations. When it comes to the traffic warnings, it is also pointed out that the smoothness can continue to lead to accidents. In Oldenburg, more than 20 smooth -related accidents occurred on Thursday, while in Delmenhorst 12 such incidents were recorded within three hours. Other parts of Schleswig-Holstein are also affected, for example by minor accidents in and around Kiel, such as ndr.de reported.

weather forecasts and traffic situation

The forecasts also provide temperatures up to -9 degrees Celsius for the coming Monday. A high pressure influence could last well into the coming week and ensure better sunlight because the air becomes drier. Winter service is already active with over 500 emergency services in Hamburg, and in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is also expected in many ways of snow. In addition, warnings were pronounced not to enter the frozen waters, especially in Western Pomerania.

The current weather conditions and the associated warnings are directly related to the expected weather conditions, which also strongly influences traffic in the north. Passengers should adapt to possible driving failures and changes in ferry traffic, especially because of the low water in the North Sea, which could affect ferry traffic to the islands of Pellworm, Amrum and Föhr.
