An exceptional drought is spreading across Slovenia, with large parts of the country already experiencing extreme dryness. According to the Agency for Environment (Arso), areas including the northwest, central regions, eastern areas, and parts of Gorizia are affected by extreme drought conditions. The most severe drought is currently observed in Ljubljana and surrounding areas, as well as in the Gorenjska, Notranjska, Bovška, Lower Savinja, Podravje, and parts of Savinjska regions. These areas have experienced water deficits ranging between 70 and 100 millimeters. Arso expects these extreme drought conditions to persist, although temperatures are expected to slightly decrease in the coming days before rising again next week. Some local thunderstorms and showers are anticipated mainly in the north. Most rivers in Slovenia remain at low levels, with the Mura and Drava rivers being the least watered. Water levels in rivers are expected to continue declining, except for some minor increases in northern, western, and parts of central Slovenia. No significant rainfall is expected in the coming days, which would impact groundwater levels.
