Power outages and flooding have also been reported in several areas of the city.

"During bad weather and strong winds, you should not walk near trees or park your cars near them, as strong winds can break branches that can fall on you or your car. We recommend taking cars away from the trees and staying out of the street during bad weather," the Department of Ecology and Natural Resources of Lviv City Council emphasized.
