Snow warning in Bavaria: over 200 accidents and danger to life!
A blizzard of the extra class has brought traffic to a standstill in Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg! Within a few hours, the police registered over 200 weather -related accidents - from the snow -covered streets of the Black Forest to Lake Constance. On Autobahn 81, traffic almost came to a standstill at times, while cars and trucks barely progress on the smooth streets. The location is dramatic!
Fortunately, most accidents only ended with sheet metal damage, but there were several slightly injured in the Schwarzwald-Baar, Tuttlingen and Rottweil districts. In the Allgäu, around Immenstadt and Sonthofen, there was a real trauma chaos in the evening - about ten accidents were reported there within just 30 minutes. A police spokesman warned that the traffic is slowly coming to a standstill due to the strong snowfall.storm warning: "Danger for body and life"
The German Weather Service (DWD) has given a severe weather warning for the affected regions. From this afternoon to early Friday morning, a closed, high snow cover threatens in parts of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg, which brings "danger to life and life". Traffic routes could be blocked and the streets are becoming dangerously smooth. In the Alpine regions, snow quantities between 15 and 25 centimeters can be expected, in the southern Black Forest even up to 30 centimeters!
The effects are not only noticeable in Germany. In France, this led to a winter onset in the afternoon, which left 235,000 households without electricity. 1,400 technicians are in use to restore the power supply. Strong gusts of wind and violent snowfall also ensured massive traffic disruptions there, while schools had to close in the past and at Charles de Gaulle airport, flight cancellations and delays are the rule.
