Weather in Poland at the end of November. Are we facing a premature December?
The onslaught of winter has been talked about for some time. Initial weather models assumed that it would be frosty and snowy, and that we might finally have a white Christmas.

Winter decided to make a surprise and come in November. In our climate, snowfall in this month was not unusual several dozen years ago. Thick layers of snow could already lie on November 1 on All Saints’ Day. However, climate changes have made November seem more like a cloudy and rainy time. This year, winter lovers will be pleasantly surprised. Snowfall in Poland has been forecast for several days. On Friday and Saturday, November 21 and 22, snow fell in southern Poland. that on Sunday, November 23, winter weather will arrive throughout Poland. As tvnmeteo.pl forecaster Arleta Unton-Pyziołek said on TVN24, air will enter Poland on Saturday night and will bring snowfall. – Something interesting is going to happen on the night from Saturday to Sunday, because the third such wave is to hit Poland more strongly and from midnight on Sunday to Monday morning it will also cover Masovia, Podlasie, Warmia, Masuria and the Łódź region. In the light of today’s GFS model calculations, half of Poland will be covered with snow, but the heaviest rainfall will be concentrated in the south and southeast, because there will be three days of continuous rainfall with small breaks. – the weather forecaster pointed out. This means that snow cover may appear in the largest Polish cities. It is forecast that in Warsaw, Kraków, Łódź, as well as Radom and Białystok, the increase in snow cover will amount to 5 centimeters.

How to prepare for the first attack of winter?
First of all, take care of your wardrobe. Fall jackets and coats may no longer be enough. It’s time to take out your winter outerwear from your closets. Experts indicate that the warmest are jackets with natural down and woolen coats. Don’t forget about appropriate shoes. The first snowfall is wet. You need waterproof footwear with good soles that will not slip on the thin and slippery snow surface. . Also remember that it may be frosty in the morning and car windows will be covered with frost. Leave a few minutes early to prepare your car for the trip. Current regulations in Poland provide for penalties for a car not cleared of snow. The fine may be up to PLN 3,000.
