Storm front Ylenia raged all night and turned to the west wind in the morning, causing interesting cross-wind landings and take-offs at DUS Airport Düsseldorf and that in nice, dry weather during the first storm day.
Even large aircraft, such as the Emirates Airbus A380 and the Turkish Airlines A330, struggled and all had to touch down at an angle.
As you can see in the wind statistics from Windfinder.com the gusts reached 45 knots - this corresponds to wind force 9 with wind speeds of over 80 km/h. Tomorrow's incoming hurricane Zeynep will be an even stronger storm with 55 knots (90-110 km/h) at its peak, but it's coming from the south-west and therefore easier for the planes to land from the front.
Second day Orcan Zeynep in Germany or Storm Eunice in Europe:
Shortly after Storm Ylenia, Storm Zeynep / Eunice followed with even stronger gusts. But for DUS Airport, in contrast to storm Ylenia, this time from the southwest, i.e. with the same orientation as the runway, which is an enormous relief for the pilots in comparison to cross wind landings. Unfortunately I had to stop filming after the Emirates A380 took off. A rain front followed with maximum gusts of over 60 knots, which I could still feel on the way home. These hurricane-force gusts continued throughout the night and the wind also turned to the west, which meant cross-wind for the pilots and again demanded all their skills when landing.
