After the frosty days, temperatures are rising again. According to the German Weather Service (DWD), a low south of Iceland will bring mild Atlantic air and rain. Dangerous black ice formed on Monday night. The meteorologists have therefore issued severe weather warnings for parts of all federal states.

"Freezing rain with black ice from west to east," says the forecast. Because the ground is frozen to a depth of more than 20 centimeters, the black ice situation can last for a long time. Traffic obstructions are possible, roads and rails could even be impassable in places. In some schools, classes will start later. According to experts, spending time outdoors should be avoided as far as possible.

The map below shows current black ice warnings from the DWD. It is a binary weather map: locations for which there is an ice warning are colored red. No coloring means there is no warning. The map is regularly updated with new data on the location.
