When storms with heavy rain showers and thunder loom in the area - BILD describes the Whitsun weather combination.

Potential storms and heavy downpours might occur in the southwestern section of Germany on a Friday, while the skies in the northern and northeastern regions will be sunny. Early warnings regarding the severe weather situation were given long beforehand. Warnings about possible landslides, flash floods, and "danger to life and limb" were issued in Baden-Württemberg.

In numerous areas, a red alert had been proclaimed. The aftermath of hail and flooding was substantial in Southern Germany on that same night.

It's worth noting that the highest warning level continues to be active in the southwest.
