Observe the weather in daily life
“Potential hazards during thunderstorms are falling branches or falling trees. There is also an increased risk of accidents in road traffic – for example due to strong crosswinds or aquaplaning and poor visibility. Therefore, keep a close eye on local weather developments and respond accordingly,” emphasizes Elmar Rizzoli, head of the Tyrolean Center for Crisis and Disaster Management, who also explains: “Thunderstorms can lead to local power outages, road closures or even delays and cancellations in public transportation available.
Recently, heavy storms, especially in southern Austria, have tested the emergency services. Styria and Burgenland in particular were affected by severe flooding.
