In the coming days, meteorologists expect continued warming, which will increase the chances of continued water accumulation and possibly cause additional damage in areas that are currently vulnerable.

IMGW Issues Alerts for Thaw and River Conditions
IMGW, the meteorological institute of Poland, has issued a
thaw warning for the counties of Pomerania and Warmia-Mazury. The agency states that rising temperatures have contributed to the melting of snow cover, causing increased runoff into rivers and streams.
Wind gusts could reach 50 km/h on Sunday, while hydrological warnings will continue to be in effect for much of the northeastern and central parts of Poland, including Mazovia. As a result, many rivers in Poland have exceeded their respective alarm levels.

Flooding and Emergency Response
According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the central village of Błędowo experienced flood-related damage to 24 different properties, including summer homes and garages. In response, 56 firefighters and a crisis management team from the Polish government are responding to help residents and manage the situation.

According to IMGW, river levels are likely to continue to fluctuate and rise as a result of frozen water from ice accumulation and continued runoff from rain and snowmelt. In addition, further warming in northern Poland will hasten snowmelt, while fog may also develop in parts of the country, further complicating currently hazardous conditions.
