Strong wind is a consequence of the current barometric situation in Europe. As tvnmeteo.pl forecaster Arleta Unton-Pyziołek reported on Friday morning, almost the entire continent is under the influence of a multi-center cyclone, the main center of which – the Ciaran low-pressure vortex – is located over the North Sea. The system is so large that two smaller low-pressure gyres have formed on its outskirts – Gordian with its center over Austria and Fred with its center over the North Atlantic.

In addition to gusts of wind, rain will also be harmful to us. On Friday morning, it was cloudy with quite heavy rainfall in Pomerania, Kujawy, Greater Poland, Lower Silesia, Opole and Mazovia. It continues to fall apart during the day – so much so that the Institute of Meteorology issued warnings for these regions.
