Over there we have a man whose car
failed to arrive at the Amphibia.
And this Mercedes will be sold as...
And that's how it is in Akos.
So the stream is flowing freely all the time.
Heavy rain hit Kielce on Sunday afternoon.
Many streets in the capital of Świętokrzyskie Wojewódzkie

Storm Dżennel, characterized primarily by heavy rain and thunderstorms,
hit much of Poland on Sunday.
City streets turned into rivers and raging streams.
According to local media,
Giedroyc Roundabout, among other areas, was flooded,
leaving cars nearly submerged.
Heavy rain has flooded many streets in our city.
The water level in Silnika has risen
and firefighters are working in Plani Park
to protect the riverbanks from overflowing.
Kielce Mayor Agata Wojda wrote on Facebook.
Our services are constantly monitoring the situation
and will immediately begin cleaning up the storm debris
once the heavy rain subsides.
If possible, avoid traveling around the city and stay at home,
the mayor added.
According to an officer at the Provincial Rescue Coordination Center,
approximately 35 properties and buildings
were flooded in the regional capital of Świętokrzyskie alone.
You could say the entire city is affected,
especially low-lying areas where underground garages
and cellars are located.
The heavy rains hit Kielce the hardest, he reported.
Agata Wojda is closely monitoring the situation on the city's streets.
The mayor of Kielce reported that special attention
has been paid to the Silnika River and the Silnika Valley.
A floodplain has formed in the Silnika Valley area.
Of course, the most vulnerable point is Planty Park.
The water has not yet overflowed the river here.
Firefighters are also on the scene securing the riverbanks.
A flood barrier is currently being installed.
The water level in the river is slowly decreasing,
but rainfall is expected to remain high, he said.
Agata Wojda urged the public to exercise extreme caution,
as some streets in the city may remain flooded.
He assured residents that officers from the Parks and City Services Department
were clearing the clogged manholes.
The situation is dynamic.
Traffic disruptions have occurred on Bodzintynska Street,
the roundabout on Zytnia Street, and part of Krakowska Street.
Particular caution is required there.
We also urge all Kielce residents to stay home
unless absolutely necessary, the mayor of Kielce emphasized.
Meanwhile, across the region, there has been a significant decrease
in reports after 6.30 p.m. so far.
Firefighters have reported five flooding incidents
in Dzerdzejo County and four in Lasovo County.
