Wetterkarte

What to do with the WeatherBlog? Skiing has been canceled, there are more important things to do. In stark contrast to the state weather services, which are part of the critical infrastructure and therefore have to continue to function anyway, we are here purely for entertainment. On the other hand, I personally find the weather report after the TV or radio news to be soothing, reassuringly normal, as is looking at weather maps. So, let's talk a bit about the weather.

This time we start with a look at the big picture, or at least the northern half of the big picture. The polar vortex has not been swirling nicely around the pole for a while now, but is wobbling around irregularly with several low-pressure centers.

Weather is complicated. Sometimes more, sometimes less. In light of the current situation, today's WeatherBlog is once again dedicated to the development and interpretation of precipitation forecasts.

Sometimes, when I see the weather,
I get violent fantasies, and the weather fairy
would be the first victim of my aggression,
although I know: what's the point,
if you take her at her word and force her
that she jumps into the North Sea in a bikini.
