May Day weather forecast: slight warming but expect rain

As Romanians prepare for the traditional May Day holiday, the National Meteorological Administration (ANM) has issued a forecast indicating a slight warming trend across most regions. Highs are expected to hover between 18 and 20 degrees Celsius, with overnight lows ranging from 4 to 8 degrees. However, the pleasant temperatures will be accompanied by periods of rain in several parts of the country, tempering the otherwise mild weather.

Specific regional forecasts show Banat and Crișana expecting highs near 20°C, with a possibility of rain, especially after April 27th. Transylvania and Moldova will see slightly cooler highs around 18°C, also with potential for precipitation. Maramureș is forecast to reach 20°C with rain possible after April 26th. Dobrogea will experience a slight warming early in May, but rain is likely, particularly after April 28th.

In the southern regions of Muntenia and Oltenia, temperatures will climb to 20°C, with lows between 7-8°C. Rain is anticipated towards the end of April and the beginning of May. Even the capital, Bucharest, will see temperatures below the seasonal norm, with temporary rain showers possible, especially at the start of the month. For those heading to the mountains, expect much colder conditions with highs around 10°C and lows between 1-2°C, along with possible precipitation after April 27th.
