U jutarnjim satima 30. srpnja 2026. u Zagrebu, na području Botaničkog vrta, zabilježena je rijetka, ali zbilja pristojna prizora – kratkotrajna kiša koja je, iako je trajala tek minutu ili dvije, ostavila duboko utisak na djelatnike i biljke u tom prostoru. Ovaj incident bio je poseban jer se dešavao u kontekstu dugotrajnog toplinskog vala koji je zahvatao gotovo cijelu Hrvatsku. Dok su većina gradova i ruralnih područja patila od ekstremno visokih temperatura, Zagreb je doživio nešto što je izgledalo kao malo iznenađenje – pravi miris osvježenja.
Državni hidrometeorološki zavod (DHMZ) je izdao crveni meteoalarm za više regija u Hrvatskoj, uključujući Zagrebačku, Karlovačku, Osječku, Kninsku, Riječku, Splitku i Dubrovačku regiju. To je pokazivalo kako su temperature dostigle vrlo visoke nivoove, a u Zagrebu je izmjereno čak 25,7 °C ujutro, što je bilo značajno za to vrijeme godine. Iako je kiša bila kratka, njezin pristanak bio je pravi zbilja zbilja, jer je u trenutku kada se grad budio, pružio osvježenje nakon dana punog vrućine.
Na službenoj Facebook stranici Botaničkog vrta Prirodoslovno-matematičkog fakulteta u Zagrebu objavili su duhovitu poruku kojom su podijelili ovaj prizor. "Mislit ćete da vas zafrkavamo, ali mali debeli oblak upravo je istovario dirljivu količinu kapljica na naše gredice! Trajalo je tek minutu-dvije, puno kraće od radosti koju je ostavio za sobom!" napisali su. Ova poruka, koja je kombinirala humor i poštovanje prema prirodi, privukla je pažnju i izazvala pozitivne reakcije na društvenim mrežama.
U isto vrijeme, na području Dalmacije, promjena vremena bila je dramatičnija. Nakon dana rekordnih vrućina, dijelove Dalmacije zahvatilo je snažno grmljavinsko nevrijeme, praćeno obilnom kišom, grmljavinom i mjestimicom tučom. Oko 17:30 sati, grmljavinski sustav se proširio od Sinja preko Dugopolja prema Omišu, donoseći obilne pljuskove, snažnu grmljavinu i izraženu tuču. Najteže je bilo na području između Dugopolja i Klisa, gdje su zabilježeni olujni udari vjetra koji su dosezali oko 100 km/h. Ispred same fronte puhao je vrlo snažan vjetar, koji je podizao velike količine prašine, stvarajući svojevrsnu prašinsku oluju koja se približava Splitu.
Najviše kiše palo je na širem Vrgorackom području, gdje je lokalno izmjereno oko 25 litara oborine po četvornom metru. Gradonačelnik Sinja, Miro Bulj, je otkrio da je u okolici Sinja pala jaka tuča, a kako javljaju čitatelji, temperatura je u svega pet minuta pala s čak 40 na 23 °C. Ovaj prizor bio je posebno iznenađujući jer je ukazivao na naglu promjenu vremenskih uvjeta, što je donijelo osjetno osvježenje na nekim lokacijama.
DHMZ je najavio da je od sredine dana s jačim razvojem oblaka pljuskovi s grmljavinom najvjerojatniji u unutrašnjosti Dalmacije i u Lici, a ponegdje i na istoku i jugu zemlje. Očekuje se da će zahvatiti i šire splitsko područje. Također, početak srpnja donosi uvjete za snažna nevremena, što je povećalo vjerojatnost razvoja superćelijskih oluja, koje mogu proizvesti tornado. Iako nije sigurno da će se pojaviti tornado, meteorološki modeli upozoravaju na mogući prodor hladnije zračne mase iz zapadne Europe prema Hrvatskoj, što može dovesti do ekstremnih vremenskih uvjeta.
Hrvatska ima dugu povijest tornada, a neki od najznačajnijih događaja datira iz 19. stoljeća. Tornado iz 1892. godine, koji je pogodio područje Novske, bio je jedan od najznačajnijih u europskoj meteorološkoj literaturi. Također, u 1973. godini, tornado je poharao Medvednicu, a u 2006. godini, kod Novigrada u Istri, zabilježen je sustav od dva tornada. U kolovozu 2007. zabilježen je snažan tornado kod Slatine, a u kolovozu 2021. zabilježena je pojava tornada kod Pule, na rtu Kamenjak. Posljednjih desetak godina, više je tornada ili pijavica dokumentirano u istočnoj Slavoniji, Baranji, Međimurju i na Jadranu, zahvaljujući videozapisima građana, iako potpuna meteorološka obrada podataka još nije završena.
Tornado nije zasebna meteorološka pojava, nego završna faza razvoja vrlo snažne grmljavinske oluje. Potrebna su četiri osnovna sastojka: vrlo topao i vlažan prizemni zrak, hladniji i suši zrak u višim slojevima, velika potencijalna energija nestabilnosti (CAPE) i izražen razvoj konvekcije. Ova kombinacija uvjeta omogućuje razvoj superćelijskih oluja, koje mogu proizvesti tornado. U Hrvatskoj, najveća vjerojatnost razvoja tornada je od svibnja do kolovoza, s maksimumom tijekom lipnja i srpnja. Najugroženije područje je istočna Slavonija, gdje otvoreni ravničarski teren pogoduje razvoj snažnih konvektivnih sustava. Tornado su moguća i u Podravini, Međimurju, Posavini i središnjoj Hrvatskoj. Na Jadranu su mnogo češće pijavice koje nastaju iznad toplog mora, ali kad nastanu unutar snažne superćelije, riječ je o pravom tornadu koji se razvio nad morem.

Firefighters from the Cres Fire Department had a challenging night after two separate interventions within a short time frame. The first call involved responding to an activated fire alarm at a building on the island of Cres. Upon arrival, they conducted a detailed inspection of the entire building to determine the cause of the alarm and ensure there was no risk of fire. It was confirmed that there were no signs of fire or danger to occupants. Shortly afterward, another urgent call came from the Kovačine camp where a fallen tree blocked access to a camper, trapping people inside. Three firefighters from the Cres Fire Department arrived, used chainsaws to remove the fallen tree, and cleared the path, allowing safe evacuation and restoring vehicle use and access to the area.

A large fire broke out on the island of Vis late yesterday evening, continuing to burn in the area of Podhumlje near Komiza. Firefighters, along with dozens of firefighters, air tankers, and aircraft from Air Tractor, continue battling the blaze, which started around 10:20 PM and spread through low vegetation and pine forest. The terrain made nighttime firefighting extremely difficult due to its inaccessibility. Residents nearby experienced fear during the night, with some describing the situation as terrifying. One resident recounted being barely able to stay alive due to fear while evacuating. Firefighters faced challenges including strong winds changing direction and limited visibility. Additional support arrived by morning, including 35 firefighters from the mainland. The fire damaged three structures, though no casualties were reported. Initial estimates suggest approximately 300 hectares of land were burned. Officials suspect the fires may have been caused by electrical issues, as two separate fires were observed, both potentially linked to power problems.
