Severe Afternoon Storms Forecasted For Southern Poland Amid Active Orange Heatwave Warning
KRAKOW, POLAND - JUNE 22: An aerial view looking down from an airplane window captures an expansive, textured field of developing cumulus clouds casting soft sunbeams and shadows onto a lower, hazy atmospheric layer over Southern Poland near Krakow, June 22, 2026. The widely scattered convective formations signal an increasingly unstable airmass building across the Lesser Poland region, where the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMGW) has forecasted severe afternoon thunderstorms, torrential rain, and hail to strike concurrently with an active regional orange heatwave warning.
