IMGW reports Thursday, August 14 will be clear and dry. Maximum temperatures reach 24 °C in the south, about 32 °C in the centre, up to 33 °C in the west. Winds will be light from the southeast. Friday’s heat remains similar, except in Lubusz Voivodeship, where temperatures climb to 35 °C.
Upcoming storms and rain

Second heatwave
Synoptists foresee heat leaving for several days, returning on Wednesday, August 20. Initially residents of Lubusz Voivodeship will feel the rise, with forecasts of 30 °C.
