On the last day of May and in the beginning of June, southern Germany was hit by extreme rainfall, that led to some river flooding.
The evaluation of the rainfall will focus on 48-hour rainfall on 31 May 00UTC - 2 June 00UTC in a box over southern Germany (47.5N - 48.5N, 9.5E - 11E).
The plots below show analyses of MSLP and 6 hour rainfall from 29 May 00UTC to 1 June 00UTC, every 12th hour. (Add 2 June.)
The plots below show analyses of T850 and z500 from 28 May to 2 June.
Precipitation observations for 48-hour precipitation (31 May 00TUC - 2 June 00UTC) with higher density than in our database (thanks to Fatima and Ervin).
The plots below show 48-hour precipitation (31 May 00UTC - 2 June 00UTC) in observations (first plot) concatenated short forecasts (second plot) and ENS control forecasts with different lead times.
The plots below show forecasts from DestinE.
The plots below show forecasts from AIFS.
The plots below shows EFI and SOT for 1-day precipitation (31 May) from different initial dates. Note that we do not have EFI available for 2-day accumulations. The box marks the region aggregated in the forecast evolution plot below.
The plot below shows the forecast evolution plot for 48-hour precipitation for southern Germany on 29 May 00UTC -2 June 00UTC.
