Implication

Analysis demonstrates an increase in winter thunderstorms in Poland, indicating shifts due to climate change.

Key Points

  • Winter thunderstorms increased by 0.35 days per decade in Poland from 1951 to 2020, highlighting climate impacts.
  • Data from 46 synoptic stations indicated that some regions had over 8% of annual thunderstorms occurring in winter.
  • Air circulation patterns and local conditions, especially near the Baltic Sea, significantly influenced thunderstorm occurrences.
  • Most winter thunderstorms were linked to atmospheric fronts, particularly dynamic cold fronts with high wind shear.
