Inundated Streets: weighty rainfall and tempests in the western regions
A series of heavy storms and torrential rain has lashed Western regions of Germany, with North Rhine-Westphalia bearing the brunt of the weather system.
The storms, which began on September 15, 2025, have caused significant disruption, leading to numerous deployments of police and fire services to attend to the resulting incidents. The hardest-hit areas include Essen, parts of the Ruhr area, Westphalia, East Westphalia, and the eastern Sauerland, where wind speeds reached up to 85 km/h. Notable storm damage was reported in Hünxe, a town in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Fortunately, the weather service has since lifted the storm warnings, signalling a respite from the turbulent conditions.
For those who wish to witness the aftermath of the storms, a video broadcast by the German Broadcasting Corporation is available. The current time on the website where the video can be found is 17:45, and the date is 09.09.2025. Please note that the time difference on the website is 01:15 min, although the exact meaning of "min" is not specified.
We encourage everyone to stay safe and informed during this period of inclement weather.
