3 days ago I wrote about possibility of a strong winds in the south-western and southern part of country. This forecast proved to be a result of which there was local damage in the form of fallen trees, broken power lines and damaged roofs. Several people were injured.

The largest damage after this windstorm were recorded in the Małopolskie province, where wind left without power more than 1300 people. About 80 trees were felled and 36 roofs on the buildings were damaged. Wind in the Śląskie province damaged 65 buildings, felled about 200 trees, destroyed a dozens of banners and broke power lines. Also blew strongly in the region of Dolnośląskie where firemen intervened more than 60 times. As a result of a strong wind 7 people were injured. Below a list of the strongest wind gusts which have been recorded during this windstorm.

1. Zakopane - 115km/h
2. Bielsko-Biała - 111km/h
3. Krosno - 90km/h
4. Lesko - 86km/h
5. Kłodzko - 82km/h
6. Nowy Sącz - 79km/h
7. Racibórz - 79km/h
8. Zielona Góra - 72km/h
9. Wrocław - 68km/h
10. Poznań - 67km/h

The lowest pressure which was 966hPa was recorded in Szczecin, but there is a chance that somewhere it was even lower and therefore it's possible that record of the lowest pressure ever recorded in Poland in December was beaten.
