    Hail and heavy rain - Severe weather risk in holiday spots

12:00
19 August 2026

Hail and heavy rain
Severe weather risk in holiday spots

Holidaymakers take note: Severe thunderstorms are forecast for tomorrow from northern Italy as far as the Alps. Outbreaks were already forming Wednesday morning in the Western Alps.

By the evening, the focus will have shifted to the northern Adriatic and Austria. The thunderstorms may, in some places, bring large hailstones, torrential rain, and gale-force gusts. Even isolated tornadoes cannot be ruled out.

Important to know

Not everyone is directly affected by a thunderstorm. In one place, it may only rain lightly or remain dry, whilst in another place the storm rages.

In any case, you should keep a close eye on the sky and the WeatherRadar if you're in the area.

WeatherRadar: There’ll be some heavy localised storms on Thursday.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
