Why is Wrocław warmer than in other cities?
When traveling around the country, you can easily see the difference in air temperature. Tourists coming to the capital of Lower Silesia quickly notice that it is warmer in Wrocław than in other large Polish cities. It turns out that this impression is most accurate, and Wrocław is the warmest Polish capital of the voivodeship.
Why is this happening? This is largely due to the city's location in the Odra River valley, which significantly influences the climate of Wrocław. The higher air temperature is also contributed by fen winds (i.e. warm and dry blowing from the mountains into the valleys), which largely warm the city during winter.
The warm city climate is also influenced by the typical urban and industrial conditions in most large towns. The local economy changes the physical characteristics of the substrate through the emission of artificial heat.
