Fog warning in Schmalkalden-Meiningen: visibility below 150 meters!

Thanks to a current weather warning from the German Weather Service (DWD), the night of today, October 14, 2025, will be a challenge for everyone on the move. Thick fog is forecast in the Schmalkalden-Meiningen region, which can reduce visibility to less than 150 meters. The warning is valid from 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. and affects several communities, including Belrieth, Meiningen and Schmalkalden.

As news.de reports, the DWD recommends adapting driving behavior accordingly. This fog warning was issued at 00:52 a.m. and affects a variety of locations in the area, such as Leutersdorf, Obermaßfeld-Gr. and Vachdorf.

Calm autumn weather brings fog

The weather situation is currently characterized by calm autumn weather, with moist and mild air flowing from the northwest. This information comes from the Warnlagebericht, which was updated on Monday evening, October 13, 2025. The possibility of local fog at night has already been pointed out, especially in the middle and south of Germany, where visibility of less than 150 meters can sometimes be observed.

A look at the Severe Weather Center shows that the warnings for all weather conditions are constantly monitored and adjusted. The two types of severe weather warnings are particularly relevant here: advance warnings, which provide information about possible severe weather up to 48 hours in advance, and acute warnings, which confirm the occurrence of a natural hazard. There are currently no strong storms or heavy rain in the region, but everyone should keep a close eye on developments.

Recommended actions

The experts recommend avoiding possible route shortcuts if visibility is impaired by fog and opting for long journey times. Walkers should also be careful and pay attention to designated paths when visibility is poor. This means everyone stays safe and unharmed, even if the autumn weather has its pitfalls.
