A severe convective storm hit Mecklenburg, Germany, triggering extreme flash flooding and massive accumulation of hail. Intense precipitation caused rapid runoff, inundating urban streets in Ludwigslust and Wittenburg under a thick layer of ice and water.

This meteorological event was driven by strong atmospheric instability combined with high moisture content, leading to the formation of severe convective cells. The rapid updrafts within these storm systems allowed large quantities of hail to develop before falling precipitously alongside torrential rainfall. Due to the high volume of ice and water within a short duration, local drainage systems were overwhelmed, resulting in sudden urban flash floods and significant hail accumulation on public roads.
