Parts of Slovenia experienced showers and thunderstorms on Monday evening, with the weather system expected to move across the majority of the country. The atmosphere is predicted to calm and partially clear overnight, though fog may form in low-lying areas by morning, according to the Slovenian Environment Agency (ARSO).

Tuesday is forecast to be partly sunny with occasional cloud cover. There is a possibility of isolated showers in the northern regions during the afternoon and evening. Morning temperatures are expected to range from 12 to 18 degrees Celsius, with daytime highs reaching 23 to 28 degrees, and up to 30 degrees Celsius in the Primorska region. High fire risk remains in effect for parts of Primorska and other areas of the country.

Looking ahead, Wednesday is expected to be mostly sunny and slightly warmer. A southwesterly wind will blow. On Thursday, eastern Slovenia should remain fairly sunny, while other areas will experience variable to mostly cloudy skies with local showers and thunderstorms, particularly in western regions. The southwesterly wind will persist.

By Friday, precipitation is expected to intensify in the west and occasionally reach the central parts of the country as a cold front moves in. This front has already reached the Alps and is expected to cross Slovenia by Friday evening. Warm, but increasingly humid and unstable air is currently flowing into the country from the southwest ahead of the front.
