BBC Sport at Stuttgart Arena
There's thunder, lightning and plenty of rain here in Stuttgart - a climate change from where I've just travelled from over in Munich.
These pictures were taking two hours before kick-off and there were barely any fans in sight.
It's not because they are not here, it's because they have seeked shelter in nearby pubs or in the stadium concourse.
As they walked to the stadium along the main road and flooded off trams, an announcement was made over speakers attached to lamp posts and road signs.
"Please move faster, we are expecting very bad weather in a few minutes. Please pass this message to those behind you."
It started chucking it down shortly afterwards. Poor volunteers are having to stand out in it and direct fans. At least they have waterproofs!
