Due to the strong #pluies which have been occurring since mid-October, many rivers have flooded in the southwest and in Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Worrying situation because no improvement is expected for a week.

Be careful this weekend due to significant accumulations of #pluies in the south: we expect locally the equivalent of 2 to 3 weeks of precipitation in addition to that which has already fallen. As soils saturated with water can no longer absorb water, risks of #inondations are to be feared.

Water, always water, and more water. In this context of low pressure, the country will receive a series of rainy spells over the next ten days at least. We have already reached remarkable levels of precipitation at the end of October on soils saturated with water; this raises fears of further #crues .. @wxcharts

The first decade of November was particularly depressed, with a deficit reaching -20 hPa between Normandy and Nord-Pas de Calais. In Lille, this is the new record for the lowest average pressure for the first decade of November (since at least 1836).

L-1 The recurring precipitation of recent weeks has allowed the small water tables in the north of the department and in the mountains to be well recharged. On the other hand, the improvement is much slower on the large aquifers in the West and South-West of the department.
L-2 Their level, although increasing, still remains at low to very low levels; however, we have noted a greater recharge over the past ten days, particularly on the Saint-Étienne-de-Saint-Geoirs piezometer in Bièvre. .

After #tempête #Elin yesterday, a new storm is forming off the coast of Ireland this Sunday. Named #Fergus , this storm will feed an atmospheric river in central France, bringing a lot of rain and the risk of flooding.

Thaw and precipitation: Warning of floods! Rain up to over 2000 m!​

There is still permafrost in southeastern Germany - even though the low-pressure area "Udo" is already bringing mild air masses to Central Europe. However, the heavy cold air is difficult to displace at ground level, so the warming will only really take hold on Saturday. Then really!
www.daswetter.com

Tauwetter und Niederschläge: Warnung vor Hochwasser! Regen bis über 2000 m hinauf!

Auf den frühen Wintereinbruch folgt Tauwetter mit zweistelligen Temperaturen. Flusspegel steigen rapide an, es besteht Hochwassergefahr.
www.daswetter.com www.daswetter.com
Winter has already arrived in large parts of Germany, especially in the southeast of the country . In many places there was a solid snow cover; in Munich the depth of the snow cover even reached over 40 cm. However, the tide turns this Friday. Low pressure area “Udo” is advancing from the Atlantic to Central Europe, bringing milder air masses with it. However, these first reach the higher air layers and only gradually establish themselves at ground level. A strong inversion occurs. In Bavaria the 850 hPa temperature is around 5 to 6 °C on Friday, but there is still permanent frost at ground level. There is a significant risk of ice due to freezing rain.

https://twitter.com/x/status/1732123672004133017

With the occlusion front of "Udo" the temperatures gradually rise again. Already on Saturday, the low pressure area "Vanja II" will move along a similar trajectory and will be influenced by the mild Atlantic air. On Saturday the temperature in southwest Germany will rise to up to 10 degrees, and on Sunday the remaining parts of Germany will also be affected.

The zero degree limit is rising rapidly​

This warming is of course also noticeable in higher air layers. The zero degree limit rises to over 2000 m, and on Saturday evening in Baden-Württemberg it can even go up to 2500 m within the warm air area of "Vanja II" . The consequence is clear: thaw is forecast in all German low mountain ranges and if the zero temperature limit really rises that high, then it will also occur in many parts of the Alps.

Together with the stratiform precipitation that forms in the mild and moist Atlantic air, snowmelt causes rising river levels and flooding. Unlike flash floods caused by convective heavy rain events, such floods can be predicted well and with a long lead time. The flood forecast center is already warning of rising river levels from Saturday evening.

In addition to the Danube, the focus is also on the Rhine . A large proportion of Alpine meltwater finds its way into the Rhine via Lake Constance. Meltwater from the western slopes of the Black Forest also gets there. An increase of around 750 cm is expected for the measuring station in Maxau (near Karlsruhe) by Sunday. In the new week it will go over 800 cm. To put it into perspective: the current water level is 654 cm, the reporting height is 700 cm and the threshold values for a two-year or ten-year flood are 780 cm and 858 cm. Preparatory measures are already being taken along the Rhine.
