Official SEVERE WEATHER WARNING of SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS with HURRICANE-FORCE GUSTS, VERY HEAVY RAIN and HAIL

ProcIntel Risk Index (PRI) PRI indicates how much procurement risk attention a canonical event warrants, based on its potential impact, corroboration, linked-entity criticality, geographic or regulatory exposure, and confidence in the available evidence. — 9 · Minimal Freshness: Fresh DATA QUALITY WARNING

PRI: 9 — MINIMAL Base risk 13/100 × Moderate confidence multiplier (0.70). Highest contributor: Significance 19/100, normalised to this factor's 40-point cap (+8 of 40). Limiting factor: Significance 19/100, normalised to this factor's 40-point cap (32 points below its maximum). DATA QUALITY WARNING: no eligible entities.

Confidence multiplier Confidence limits the final PRI when evidence is uncertain. A severe but weakly supported claim cannot reach the highest PRI bands.: 0.7 (Moderate) · Calculated 2026-08-19 18:49:34 (vv1).

Source Facts

There is a risk of severe thunderstorms with violent storm or hurricane-force gusts, very heavy rain and hail (level 3 of 4). Max. gusts: < 120 km/h; Precipitation amounts: ~ 30 l/m²/1h; Hail: ~3 cm Great danger due to: lightning (danger to life!); widespread falling trees, high-voltage power lines, scaffolding and other (possibly large) objects; falling branches, roof tiles and other (possibly large) objects; damage to buildings; rapid flooding of roads, subways and basements; widespread aquaplaning; possible mudslides; hail. Recommendations for what to do: Avoid staying outdoors and seek shelter (e.g. in buildings). Avoid being near lakes and rivers Be prepared for considerable and widespread disruption to transport routes, including road closures. If there is enough time: secure or store away outdoor objects. Keep sufficient distance from buildings, trees, scaffolding and high-voltage power lines. Close all doors and windows. Avoid flooded areas and areas at risk. If appropriate, take precautions against flooding. If flooding is expected or has already set in, leave the basement immediately. Keep up to date on the flood situation at www.hochwasserzentralen.de
