What was this thundering through Čačak? Unusual natural phenomenon recorded, everything was spinning in a circle (VIDEO)

An unusual weather phenomenon known as 'pijavica' (a whirlwind-like vortex) surprised residents of Ljubić in Čačak during late afternoon on Sunday. The event was characterized by alternating clouds and sunlight, followed by strong winds that caused objects to swirl in circles. Local resident Dragan described the situation, noting that while the wind was strong enough to lift grass and dust, it wasn’t powerful enough to move larger items. This is not the first time such an occurrence has been reported in Serbia, with a similar event affecting Dragacevo several years ago, leaving behind destruction. Meteorologists explain that 'pijavica' occurs due to differences in air pressure, leading to the mixing of warm and cold air masses within cumulonimbus clouds, resulting in rapid rotation and the formation of elongated funnels.

A drunkard in a Chachan settlement, locals caught: Fortunately, it was short-lived (VIDEO)

An unusual weather phenomenon known as 'pijavica' (a whirlwind-like effect) surprised residents of the village of Ljubic in Cacak during Sunday afternoon. The event was characterized by alternating clouds and sunlight, followed by a sudden strong wind that whipped up dust and grass but did not cause significant damage. Local resident Dragana from Ljubic described the experience, noting that while the wind was strong, it did not carry objects around. This is not the first time such a phenomenon has occurred in Serbia; a similar intense 'pijavica' affected Dragacevo several years ago, leaving behind destruction. Meteorologists explain that 'pijavica' occurs due to the interaction between warm and cold air masses, leading to rapid rotation and the formation of elongated cloud formations.
