W książce przedstawiono zagadnienie wpływu cyrkulacji atmosferycznej oraz temperatury i wilgotności powietrza na występowanie dni z burzą w Polsce.

The study concerns research into the connection between atmospheric circulation over the area of Central and Eastern Europe, and the occurrence of days with thunderstorms in the territory of Poland. Apart from that the influence of air temperature and air humidity on the occurrence of days with thunderstorms was investigated. The analysis of thunderstorm activity in connection with atmospheric circulation and air temperature or humidity was carried out in seasons of storm activity and storm regions set apart in the study. The analysis of lower synoptic maps for the researched period 1971-2000 made it possible to isolate seven types of synoptic situations characteristic of days with storms on the area of Poland. During research based on the use of correlation calculations and logistic regression, a determination was made of the influence of various synoptic situation types and air temperature or humidity on storm activity. An indication was made of two types of synoptic situations that are particularly conducive to the appearance of days with storms, of which one type influences the occurrence of particularly fierce and dangerous storms.
