🌬 After the storm is before the storm 🌬.....
Has blown a lot, especially on the Hönselberg, about 570m high, above Niederehe. There is quite a large juniper area there.

The pleasure places Landcafe Kerpen, Restaurant Gröner Hof Loogh and Landgasthof Schröder in Niederehe were all still closed today....
