Times in CET (UTC+1) all year — the clock the archive stamps the day and the gust with.
Only stations below 1,000 m are counted: a gust on a 3,000 m summit says nothing about a roof in the valley.

Questions people ask first
- Was this storm strong enough to count for an insurance claim?
- Standard German conditions name wind force 8 — 62 km/h as a gust. The table on this page lists what each station recorded that day; if the stations near your address reached it, the measurement supports your claim. The check on your own address answers it exactly.
- How do I prove the storm reached MY street?
- By naming the station, its distance and what it measured — which is what a record about your address does. Stations are a median 11.6 km apart across Germany, so the nearest one is usually close enough to be evidence; past 25 km we refuse to sell a record rather than stretch it.
- Where do these numbers come from?
- The national weather service's own open archive. Every figure on this page comes from a station file published by the Deutscher Wetterdienst, and the paid record prints the archive file's address next to each number.
