Nebelsiegel and Sturm warning: ILM-Kreis fights against visual impairments!

In the ILM district in Thuringia, the alarm level is currently red! The German Weather Service issued several official warnings that affect the region. From December 21, 2:00 p.m., until December 22nd, 12:00 p.m., warnings will be warned of extreme visibility under 150 meters due to dense fog. This can lead to dangerous situations in road traffic, which is why drivers should drastically adjust their speed and attention, such as news.de reported.

But that's not all! The ILM circle is also exposed to gusts of wind. These are accompanied by a strong storm from the southwestern direction, which can reach speeds between 70 km/h and 85 km/h. The warning applies until December 22nd, 6:00 a.m. This poses the risk of falling branches and objects flying around, which represents another risk factor for citizens and travelers. It is recommended to secure free-standing objects so that no damage occurs, such as 14-tage-wetterbedingung.de reported.

In addition, there is a warning by wind gusts of up to 60 km/h, which can occur on December 21st between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. In higher regions, even gusts of wind with wind speeds up to 70 km/h can be expected. In view of the changeable weather conditions, citizens should be extremely careful and keep an eye on the current weather forecast to get through these critical days safely.
