Munich Airport temporarily suspended flight operations on Tuesday morning due to freezing rain, as cold weather continues to affect the region.
All flights were either canceled or postponed between 6 AM and noon.
The airport, which is Germany’s second biggest and thus very important, warned that many flights scheduled for later in the day might also be affected by the severe weather conditions.
The airport, Germany’s second biggest, announced the temporary shutdown on Monday night as a result of weather forecasts for Tuesday.
Tuesday’s cancellations came after all flights at Munich Airport were grounded on Saturday following heavy snowfall in the city and in Bavaria generally.
Southern Germany as well as neighboring Austria and Switzerland have been experiencing heavy snowfall which has affected public transport all over the region and led to alarm about possible avalanches.
