A sudden shift in weather has swept through Croatia, bringing heavy rain and thunderstorms to Zagreb, while hail fell in Jastrebarsko and Karlovac. The change was marked by yellow and orange meteorological warnings issued by the Croatian Hydrometeorological Service (DHMZ), highlighting the potential for localized heavy rainfall with lightning and strong gusty winds, accompanied by stormy conditions. These alerts were particularly relevant for the northern parts of the country. The weather changes began around midday on Saturday, with dark clouds forming over the Zagreb area and light rain starting around 8 PM. Thunderstorms hit Jastrebarsko later in the day, according to reports from Večernji list. The DHMZ had already issued yellow and orange warnings for central Croatia earlier in the week due to the possibility of localized heavy downpours with lightning, followed by strong wind gusts. They warned of the likelihood of thunderstorms, especially in the north of the country. As the weekend progressed, the weather pattern continued to evolve. According to forecasts from the DHMZ, Croatia will experience partly cloudy and unstable weather with occasional rain and thunderstorms, particularly in the interior and along the coast. In contrast, the southern regions of the country will remain sunny and very hot, with temperatures reaching up to 35 degrees Celsius. The warning for Split region remains active due to dangerously high temperatures, indicating hazardous weather conditions and increased risk of heat stress.

Yellow warnings have been issued for the Osijek, Gospić, and Rijeka regions, where local thunderstorms and strong winds are possible. On the Kvarner coast, stronger winds are expected, with gusts reaching speeds of up to 65 to 75 kilometers per hour. The weather forecast for Sunday indicates that the instability will continue, with possible rain and thunderstorms in the interior and along the northern Adriatic. In contrast, the southern Adriatic will see mostly sunny skies with high temperatures. The wind will be weak to moderate from the northeast and northwest, while on the Adriatic Sea, the maestral will strengthen in the afternoon, especially on open water and in channels of the middle and southern Adriatic. The weather continues to fluctuate, with some areas experiencing cooler temperatures and others remaining under the influence of the heatwave. The DHMZ warns that the highest daytime temperatures will range from 25 to 30 degrees Celsius, while on the coast and islands they will reach 30 to 34 degrees. The lowest nighttime temperatures will be between 14 and 18 degrees in the interior, and up to 20 to 25 degrees on the Adriatic and in the interior of Dalmatia. The weather patterns suggest that the unsettled conditions will persist until the middle of the following week, when summer-like heat returns.
