21.9.2021, WMO

This is the summary announced by the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) after an initial analysis of the observations from its...
The weather in Germany in August 2021 - Deutscher Wetterdienst

These resulted in frequent rainfall, which was accompanied at first by violent thunderstorms, extremely heavy localised precipitation and even tornados. Periods of high pressure and sunshine were generally only brief. The initially summery temperatures fell in the course of the month and were at times autumnal during the last ten days of the month. Consequently, August 2021 was...
