A Scandinavian depression caused stormy and cool weather in Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein in northern Germany last weekend. The first storm surge of the season occurred on the North Sea coast and on the Elbe. The fish market in Hamburg was flooded on Saturday afternoon. According to the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH), the water in the Elbe rose to 1.82 meters above mean high tide around 5:30 p.m.
On Saturday night, a cold front with thunderstorms and sometimes strong gusts of wind passed through Schleswig-Holstein. A storm caused serious damage in Cashagen near Lübeck.
People were not harmed. Looking ahead to the coming days, it is already clear: according to the BSH water level forecast, no further storm surges are expected for the time being.
