Danger of severe weather in Göttingen: heavy rain and storm on Saturday evening!

An exciting evening lies ahead in the Göttingen district – even if the outlook is bleak. The German Weather Service (DWD) issued a severe weather warning on June 14, 2025, warning of the impending thunderstorms. According to the information from Göttingen Tageblatt The warning applies specifically to the period from Saturday evening, 6 p.m. to midnight.

Severe thunderstorms are expected in some areas, which could be accompanied by heavy rain, hail and stormy winds. The weather forecast expects rainfall amounts of up to 40 liters per square meter, local extreme events could even bring more than 40 liters in a short period of time. There will also be hailstones with a diameter of around three centimeters and heavy gusts of wind with speeds of up to 100 km/h. In individual cases, hurricane-like gusts of up to 110 km/h are possible. All of this is accompanied by a high risk of severe weather, which requires timely protective measures.

Looking forward to the night of culture

Particular attention is being paid to the upcoming “Night of Culture” in downtown Göttingen, which is planned for the evening. Large numbers of visitors are expected and the forecast storms could have a major impact on the event.

At 6 p.m. the temperatures stabilize at 31°C, while there is no precipitation for the time being. But the weather situation can change quickly, which the local organizers should also keep in mind.
