Scattered thunderstorms develop over Slovenia; heatwave to continue

Scattered thunderstorms began forming over the northern and western parts of Slovenia around 3 PM on Sunday. The Slovenian Environment Agency (Arso) forecasts that isolated thunderstorms will continue to develop through the evening and into the first part of the night, with some of these storms potentially being severe.

Conditions are expected to clear rapidly after midnight, with some fog possibly forming in valleys. Overnight low temperatures will range from 14 to 20 degrees Celsius, reaching up to 24 degrees Celsius along the coast.

Looking ahead to Monday, the weather is predicted to be sunny and hot across the country. While sunshine will dominate, isolated thunderstorms may still form in the afternoon. Winds from the east are also expected in some areas. Daytime high temperatures are forecast to reach between 29 and 33 degrees Celsius inland, and up to 36 degrees Celsius along the coast. A high heat load is expected to persist in low-lying areas, particularly along the coast and in larger cities.

Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to remain mostly sunny with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms. A light bora wind may blow along the coast. The heatwave is set to continue.
