Hailchaos on Lake Constance: streets under water - traffic paralyzed!
in Sipplingen, Baden-Württemberg, there was devastating hail showers, which covered in some areas of up to half a meter hail. Hailcorns were measured by impressive five centimeters in diameter. The enormous rainfall led to considerable traffic disruptions, fortunately there are no injuries to report, such as [Tagesschau.de] (https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/badenwuerttemberg/swr-bw-newsticker-am-morgen-haglschauer-enorme-hitzewelle-erreicht-hohezeit-ero effects- s21 wackel- 100.html) reports.
These violent thunderstorms usually quit after hot and dry days and are associated with heavy rain and gusts of wind. The process of thunderstorm formation is characterized by ascending, warmer air that cools down in height and forms cumulonimbus clouds, which are typical of thunderstorms. These clouds are responsible for the electrical tensions that lead to flashing, the temperatures of up to 30,000 degrees Celsius can reach, according to the Stuttgart messages.
improved security measures
In the context of the current weather situation, the Baden-Württemberg state government has passed the "Master Plan Child Protection", which includes 52 measures for early detection of child welfare. The financial resources for this were increased from 700,000 euros to around five million euros, such as [Tagesschau.de] (https://www.tagesschau.de/inland/badenwuerttemberg/swr-bw-newsticker-am-morgen-haglschauer-enorme-hitzewelle-erreicht-hohezeit-ero effects- s21 wackel- 100.html) reports.
In addition, the police in Heilbronn arrested a 35-year-old man who is suspected of having committed at least seven attacks on petrol stations in Heilbronn and Stuttgart. The perpetrator had worn a motorcycle helmet and has now been used to custody. This is part of a persistent offensive against crime in the region, which is also burdened by the youngest thunderstorms and their consequences.
water shortage and traffic situation
The Stadtwerke Bruchsal urges the population to save water because there has been a fault in one of their waterworks. The residents are recommended not to fill pools and only use washing machines to be fully loaded so as not to further burden the water supply.
The traffic situation in Baden-Württemberg remains tense, especially on the A8 and A81, where construction sites lead to traffic jams. For commuters it is also a challenge if the highlight of the heat shaft is expected to be up to 40 degrees Celsius.
In the middle of these challenges, the opening of Stuttgart 21's underground station is also discussed. The opening could be postponed again, which could have potential effects on traffic and regional projects.
While these current topics determine the local news situation, it can be seen that nature and social challenges are closely related. Thunderstorms and their violent forms have a direct impact on the security situation, the infrastructure and the everyday life of people.
