Severe Storms Hit Poland: Hail, High Winds, and Urgent Warnings

Severe Weather Warnings Issued Across Poland as Intense Storms Threaten Southern Regions Heavy rain, thunderstorms, and hail are expected across Poland, with the southern parts of the country bracing for the most severe weather. The Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMGW) has issued warnings for much of the nation, advising residents to take precautions. "The strongest storms will hit the south," stated Grzegorz Walijewski, a spokesperson for IMGW, in an interview with Teleexpress TVP. "We are expecting wind gusts of up to 90 kilometers per hour, which can cause significant damage." The warnings highlight the potential for downed trees, power outages, and property damage. Residents are urged to avoid unnecessary travel and to secure any loose objects that could be blown around by the strong winds. The IMGW is providing regular updates on the situation, and residents are encouraged to monitor these updates for the latest information. While the storms are expected to be severe, the IMGW anticipates that the weather will improve overnight. The agency is working to ensure that emergency services are prepared to respond to any incidents that may arise.
