Due to the ash dust and the concomitant increase in the amount of aerosols, cloud fields sometimes form more often at night. Also, as with desert dust, light clouds in the sky may appear. The night sky over Bavaria can be partly cloudy or foggy. Sometimes a colorful sunset can also be enjoyed.

Overnight and tomorrow, the lower Nicholas cold front from northwest Europe will move west to east across Bavaria with heavy rain and thunderstorms. Along with the hills, the ash cloud will also move east across the Free State into the Czech Republic and Austria, but will not be visible due to often overcast skies. However, some of the ash dust will also be washed away by precipitation and could be visible tomorrow on cars, window sills or patio and balcony furniture.

Is ash dust harmful to health?

There are no health risks associated with ash dust. Nor would we see such a picture of Montreal or New York – where there are very high levels of dust pollution and therefore health risks. Because during the long journey from North America across the pond to Europe, the ash cloud had lost much of its focus.

Also, ash clouds are only present in the upper atmosphere. This means that we cannot inhale soot particles which are very harmful to health. As there is very little chance of smoke or ash particles reaching the ground, there is no risk to the health of residents and Bavaria will not be shrouded in smog.
