Storm Mania to bring strong winds to Germany

The next storm system is approaching Germany from the North Atlantic, with winds expected to strengthen again overnight. This follows the recent passage of Storm "Luise." According to the German Weather Service in Offenbach, Storm "Mania" will bring new gusts after a brief lull. Inland areas could see winds up to 75 kilometers per hour, while higher elevations and coastal regions may reach 100 kilometers per hour. Hurricane-force gusts of up to 130 kilometers per hour are possible on some peaks and along the North Sea, especially in Schleswig-Holstein, with the maximum expected tomorrow afternoon. The storm's track keeps it at a distance, making the situation more manageable than it could have been.
