After the weekend's heavy rainfall, Zakopane is struggling with excess snow on the roadsides. He is scheduled to be taken out of town this week.
On Monday morning, there was 85 centimeters of snow on Kasprowy Wierch, and 122 cm in the Dolina Pięciu Stawów Polskich. IN Zakopane snow cover was 30 cm – according to data from the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management.
Sand plows are constantly working on the city streets, and residents are clearing snow from their properties. There is so much snow that piles form on the roadsides, obstructing pedestrian traffic.

Residents who are responsible for clearing snow from sidewalks adjacent to their properties often shovel snow onto the road, and after the plow passes by, it lands back on the sidewalk. Snow removal from the streets of Zakopane is planned for this week.
