storm over Berlin: The is really behind the clouds-phenomenon
well, but what’s behind this phenomenon? It is a so-called Roll Cloud (“roll cloud). A cloud in the shape of a Böenwalze , which can occur during Thunderstorms-weather. For observers, such as here in Berlin, it looks as though the cloud would roll up on you, and a horizontal axis. For us, this Wolkenart is very rare, regular you can see you as a famous Morning Glory Cloud on the Northern Australian Gulf of Carpentaria.
The world is not meanwhile, also in Berlin. The capital city of-fire Department reports after the storm* only a single flooded basement and scattered fallen trees. In addition, a flash led strike on the limitations of the S-Bahn. Overall, therefore, fortunately, all very harmless. All the more fun now, in retrospect, looking at the fascinating pictures.
the storm struck in Bavaria, something fierce. In the upper Bavarian town of Grainau even had to be 200 people evacuated.
