Weather – Offenbach am Main – rain, snow and storm: roads can become slippery – panorama

Offenbach (dpa / lhe) – The weather in the first week of Advent will be anything but nice: wet, cold and quite stormy. The German Weather Service (DWD) in Offenbach expects a cloud-shrouded start of the week for Hesse after a night with partial freezing temperatures and snowfall. In addition, it should rain on Monday and snow in the high altitudes. According to the forecast, temperatures will reach a maximum of four degrees. At night, drivers have to adjust to slippery roads again.

Already at the weekend, journeys, especially in North and East Hesse, became a slide game. There were several accidents. In Laudenbach (Werra-Meißner district), a 21-year-old came off the road with his car on Saturday evening due to black ice. He and his three passengers were just as uninjured as a 63-year-old who, according to the police, drove his car head-on into a patrol car at the scene of the accident. Its crew was just picking up the first collision. In the vicinity of Bad Soden-Allendorf (Werra-Meißner district), a woman crashed into the guardrails on a slippery road with her vehicle. The 21-year-old got away with the horror on Saturday. Because, according to the police, she was traveling too fast on a slippery track, a woman from Bad Hersfeld (Hersfeld-Rotenburg district) with her car brushed against a tree and a sign. There, too, there was property damage.

According to the DWD, snow and rain and muddy roads can also be expected on Tuesday. At higher altitudes it could snow heavily at times. Stormy winds and strong gusts may then cause snow drifts. With seven degrees it should be a little warmer. For Wednesday, the meteorologists even expect ten degrees, but with continuous rain.
