Abstract
This paper presents the characteristics of hot weather in Zakopane in 1986–2015. The data on air
temperature obtained from the NCDC NOAA public databases was the source material for this research. In
1986–2015, there were 18 very hot days, 97 very warm days, 2 tropical nights and 6 very warm nights. During
that period there were 3 heat waves (in 2000, 2013 and 2015). The thermal characteristics indicate that since
1990, there has been a distinct increase in the frequency of extreme weather events.
