Wintereinbruch sorgt für 75 Unfälle und gesperrte Gebäude in Bayern 21.02.2026

A significant winter storm brought heavy snowfall and hazardous conditions to Bavaria, Germany, resulting in approximately 75 accidents, primarily involving property damage, with one severe incident on the A99 near Aschheim injuring an entire family. The adverse weather also caused disruptions to public transport, with train delays and cancellations due to fallen trees and damaged overhead lines, and led to flight delays and cancellations at Munich Airport. Additionally, the weight of the wet, heavy snow forced the closure of two swimming pools in Augsburg and the Eisstadion in Peißenberg due to safety concerns over snow load. Despite the disruptions, temperatures are forecast to rise significantly by Sunday, with highs of up to 12 degrees Celsius, leading to rapid melting.
