Fig8.1.9.6-2: As Fig8.1.9.6-1 but with HRES precipitation totals over 9hrs added: purple > 10mm.  In practice, the fact that there is precipitation indicates sufficient availability of moisture while the very high EFI indicates that unusual (i.e. climatologically high as defined by M-climate) convective available potential energy (CAPE) is available in the north Germany area.  Precipitation totals in the very active storms that are likely to form will be greater than ENS or HRES show (here HRES precipitation) and with associated significant downdraught gusts.
