    Storms Approaching from the Northeast
    Storms are making their way into Poland from the northeast, prompting warnings in several provinces including Warmian-Masurian, Podlaskie, Masovian, and parts of Kuyavian-Pomeranian, Greater Poland, and Łódź Voivodeships. The forecast indicates that these storms will intensify throughout the day.

    Potential Impact
    As the storms progress, wind speeds could escalate to 85 km/h, accompanied by the threat of hail. Areas expected to be affected include Lublin, Subcarpathian, Świętokrzyskie, Lesser Poland, and northern parts of Silesian Voivodeship.

    Residents are advised to stay indoors and secure loose objects. Travelers should exercise caution, and maritime activities along the coast should be avoided until conditions improve.
