Weather

This summer, the highest alert level (red) has already been issued six times due to the risk of thunderstorms, which is more than the total number of alerts issued in an average year, the head of the National Meteorological Service's hazard warning department said, according to profitline.hu.

In his analysis, Tamás Csonka wrote that the highest alert for thunderstorms has already been issued six times in five days this summer.

Under a red alert, in addition to large-sized hail of more than 2 centimeters, there is a higher chance of damaging wind gusts, typically exceeding 80-90 kilometers per hour, over a large area compared to an orange alert.
