Sopot: which areas could be flooded by Baltic waters during a strong storm?
During severe tidal surge, water could reach behind Sopot beach — such a scenario has already occurred near the WOPR headquarters. A map indicates that a five-hundred-year flood could inundate sections of North Park, South Park and low-lying areas in Karlikowo. The threat would worsen with heavy rain: water would flow down from higher streets precisely when high sea level would hinder its drainage. In December, a storm blocked the Swelina outlet with sand on the border between Sopot and Gdynia.
