Shipping - Authority: Ice formation possible along German Baltic Sea coast
The Baltic Sea Waterways and Shipping Authority (WSA) is warning of possible ice formation on the German Baltic Sea coast. This must be expected from Flensburg to the German-Polish border, the authority announced on Thursday. The warning is valid until the end of April. Icy waters should only be navigated with suitable ships. The authority also warns of shipping buoys that could possibly drift away or capsize. Any restrictions on shipping due to ice formation will be announced separately.
According to the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH), the ice winter in the northern Baltic Sea region began at the end of October. However, there is currently no sea ice on the German coast, according to the authority's website.
