Cold front sweeps over MV: Storm causes chaos and cancellations!
In the late afternoon of June 23, 2025, strong wind and rain caused considerable unrest in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Loud NDR The fire department reported over 30 missions due to storm damage, particularly in the Mecklenburg Lake District, where the Demmin, Müritz and Mecklenburg-Strelitz regions were affected. In Neubrandenburg, fallen trees hindered traffic, which further aggravated the situation.
The effects of the extreme weather conditions were not limited to the roads. Ferry traffic suffered significantly from the conditions, so that several connections, including the important route to Hiddensee and the routes from Wiek auf Rügen, Zingst and Ribnitz-Damgarten, were canceled. After the trips were canceled for Tuesday, it remains uncertain when ferry operations can resume.
Early closures and relocations
Leisure activities were also negatively affected by the weather. An open-air park concert that was supposed to take place in the picturesque Endingen monastery ruins was moved to the Niepars gymnasium due to high humidity. The condition of the instruments required this precaution as moisture can be extremely damaging to them. The event, which will be performed with the Theater Vorpommern orchestra and soloists, was dedicated to the popular musical “My Fair Lady” and was intended to offer a musical variety.
