The German Weather Service issued a severe-storm warning for the Stuttgart and Tübingen regions, citing lightning, hail, aquaplaning and rapid flooding risks.
The German Weather Service, or DWD, has warned of severe storms in the Stuttgart and Tübingen regions of Baden-Württemberg, with hazards including lightning, hail, aquaplaning and rapid flooding.
The warning was reported on June 22, 2026, and was described as level 3 of 4. It was current at the time of publication at 16:59 UTC that day.
What DWD warned about
The warning highlighted the risk of lightning strikes, fast-moving downpours and localized flooding in streets, underpasses and basements. DWD also cited aquaplaning on roads and possible hail.
The alert applies to residents and commuters in two major regions of Baden-Württemberg: Stuttgart and Tübingen.
What happens next
The warning is a public-safety alert rather than a confirmed damage report. The next question is whether DWD extends, escalates or lifts the warning.
There have also been no verified reports in the available research of storm damage, flooding or transport disruption. Those impacts will need to be checked separately if the situation develops.
