Poland is on the verge of experiencing typical pre-spring weather, with expectations for significant temperature increases in the coming days, as warmer air from Morocco and Spain replaces the current arctic air. The weather service tvnmeteo.pl warns that this shift may lead to increased water levels across the country, which could affect various regions, especially those prone to flooding. The rise in temperatures is anticipated to improve outdoor conditions, but it carries potential risks during the transition phase.

In terms of the weekend forecast, Friday is expected to remain generally clear with no precipitation, although temporary increases in cloud cover could occur in the northeastern and central parts of the country. Temperatures will vary across regions, with lows of minus 11 degrees Celsius in Lublin and highs of up to minus 4 degrees Celsius in the northwest and northern areas. Winds will be weak to moderate overall, with some areas experiencing gusty conditions in the south and along the coast.

As the weekend progresses, by Saturday, considerable cloud cover is predicted, and precipitation in the form of snow will begin to move inland from the west. This will transition to rain mixed with snow and heavier rain, potentially causing freezing rain conditions that could lead to sleet. The colder night from Friday to Saturday could compound these risks, making the expected thaw a complex weather event that demands attention and readiness from local authorities and communities in anticipation of changing water levels.
