* Death toll reaches 15 in Polish floods
* Damage spreading northwards, more rain forecast
WARSAW, May 24 (Reuters) - The death toll from the worst floods to hit Poland in over a decade reached 15 on Monday, as flood waters spread towards the north of the country and burst through a dyke, officials said.
Heavy rain has caused damage estimated at more than 2 billion euros ($2.5 billion) over the last week, forcing the evacuation of thousands of people from their homes along the Vistula river, which flows from the southern Tatra mountains into the Baltic.

Floods Claim 15 Victims in Poland
By Marcin Sobczyk
Flash floods that have claimed 15 lives so far are moving into northern Poland after devastating much of the southern and central parts of the country.
Authorities in Warsaw closed more than 120 public schools and kindergartens, as well as 10 kilometers of a busy street that runs along the Vistula, as the swollen river continued to threaten to breach its banks three days after water rose above alarm levels.
Some 100,000 people, especially in the eastern part of the city, face the risk of dramatic flooding if the Vistula breaks its dykes. The flood culmination is unusually long, with waters expected to remain above alarm levels for another two days, increasing the risk for the soaked embankment.
