Supercells are conquering the Czech Republic and bringing a lot of hail. They are also in Slovakia
This evening, it is extremely stormy, especially in our Czech neighbors, where several super targets have already appeared. They are also aimed at us. Be especially careful in the far west.
Today, there are strong storms and probably several supercells in the area in the south and east of the Czech Republic. One of them is also heading to the west of Slovakia, where it is necessary to pay attention to dangerous side effects.
The supercella was created in České Budějovice and also in Břeclav, where it brought significant hail. Currently, the most dangerous is probably the one in Břeclav, which a few minutes ago was also hit by a very intense hailstorm.
The hailstones ranged in size from 1 to 2 cm, but were so large that they all formed and formed a continuous white cover.
Hailstones up to 3 cm in size appeared in Lednice in Moravia and hailstorms also spread in Bednárečko near Jindřichův Hradec, where hailstones also reached a size of up to 2 cm.
Thousands of lightning struck in the Czech Republic
So far, the storms have brought almost 9,500 lightning strikes in the Czech Republic, and 511 lightning strikes have hit our territory so far.
In addition to hail, supercells are accompanied by a strong gust of wind, which can cause damage. The supercell from Břeclav is heading towards our borders, which can hit in a few minutes. Therefore, it must be very expensive in this border area in Záhorie.
In addition to hail, a large amount of precipitation will fall on our territory, and beware of flash floods.
