A tornado hit the area of Balcarzowice in the Opole Voivodeship in Poland. This was reported by RMF24, according to UNN.
Details
It is noted that as a result of the natural disaster, 18 buildings were damaged, 11 of which are residential. According to preliminary data, no people were injured.
According to data from the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management of Poland, the nature of the damage—namely torn-off roofs, damaged buildings, and the localized, strip-like path of destruction—indicates a tornado.
Tornadoes are among the strongest convective phenomena occurring in Poland. Due to their highly localized nature, they can cause significant damage in a small area, while in neighboring towns, the effects of the phenomenon may be much less severe or non-existent
