Deep “Maya” is coming – gloomy forecast: heavy rain, storm and hail

Severe thunderstorms with heavy rain, gusts and hail are expected from the Innviertel in Upper Austria, the Flachgau and Tennengau in Salzburg, spreading east and south until after midnight.

Heavy rain, showers and hail possible

The heaviest showers are expected to fall in the Innviertel. “In all parts of the country, there are likely to be storms with top speeds of 80 km/h and above,” ZAMG said in the warning. Hail may also fall.

Outdoor movable objects such as party tents, trampolines and garden furniture should be secured, windows, doors and gates should be closed. It is important to land early with sport planes and to reach ports quickly with boats. Temporary power outages may occur.
