The drought continues in Slovenia, and soon the heat will return

Slovenia continues to experience dry conditions in the surface soil layer, although water balance data show a slightly smaller deficit compared to the previous week. According to forecasts by the Agency for Environment of the Republic of Slovenia (Arso), upcoming rainfall will improve conditions somewhat but will not fully compensate for the deficits. Over the last 30 days, the country has experienced exceptionally dry weather, with the most pronounced droughts in areas around Ljubljana, Lower Sava, Pomur, Podravje, Gorenjska, Savinja, Goriska, and Notranjska. The period was marked by unusually high temperatures, with average daily temperatures significantly above the long-term average. Rainfall has been sparse over the past month, with some increase in the last ten days. In regions with the most severe drought, up to 100 liters of rain per square meter would be needed to normalize conditions. Upcoming weather is expected to bring more cloud cover and isolated thunderstorms, potentially adding up to 20 liters of rain per square meter in western and southern parts of the country. However, this will only partially improve the situation. After a brief cooling period, temperatures are預

Heavy hailstorm affects Croatian Istria, in Rovinj more easily injured

A strong thunderstorm with hail hit the Istrian region of Croatia, causing damage in Rovinj and surrounding areas. The storm brought heavy rain and large hailstones, resulting in several injured people and disrupted traffic. Local reports indicate that the area around Krk was also affected by significant hail, while parts of Sinj and Imotski in Dalmatia experienced substantial damage. According to the Croatian State Hydrological and Meteorological Institute (DHMZ), unstable weather conditions with the risk of thunderstorms and strong winds with gusts are expected across much of the country. An orange-level weather warning was issued for the coastal regions of Rijeka and Knin, as well as Dalmatia, while the rest of the country received a yellow-level warning, except for Slavonia, which had no warnings.

The passage of the cold front is accompanied by windstorms and hailstorms

A cold front has moved through Slovenia, bringing heavy rain, strong winds, and hail across various regions. According to data from the Center for Weather Alerts, reports of windstorms were received from multiple locations in the Podravje and broader Celje areas, including Dravograd, Gornja Radgona, and Slovenska Bistrica. The Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for the Environment (Arso) reported that the area of stronger storms has shifted toward southern-eastern Slovenia, affecting the vicinity of Mokronog and moving towards the area of Nova Gorica. Strong storm activity in the south-east of the country is expected to subside within the next two hours. Earlier, stormy conditions had affected northern-eastern Slovenia. Reports of windstorms came from Apače, Poljčan, Majšperk, Maribor, Laško, Velenje, Šentjur and Ljubljana. Intense rainfall hit Dravograd, where meteorological water flooding was also recorded. Strong storms with hail were reported by Meteoinfo Slovenia in Gornja Radgona and Slovenska Bistrica. Due to stronger storms with strong gusts of wind and locally hail, Arso issued an orange weather warning for northern-east and southern-east Slovenia for the afternoon and傍晚.

A cold front has reached Slovenia, bringing heavy rain, strong winds, and thunderstorms, particularly in the northeastern and southeastern regions. The Meteorological Institute of Slovenia reported thunderstorms with strong wind gusts in areas such as Gornja Radgona, along with reports of flooding from rainfall in parts of Podravje and around Celje. The Environment Agency of the Republic of Slovenia issued an orange weather warning for the northeastern part of the country, later extending it to the southeast due to the increased likelihood of severe thunderstorms as the cold front passes. While some localized thunderstorms and light showers are expected, the main concern is the strong wind. The cooler air is expected to remain over Slovenia for much of the week, with daytime temperatures around 25°C and morning temperatures between 10°C and 15°C.

Slovenia is still in the grip of drought, but will the predicted rainfall bring relief?

Slovenia continues to experience drought conditions, with significant areas facing severe water shortages. The Agency for Environment of the Republic of Slovenia reports that over the past 30 days, precipitation levels have been between 20% and 60% below average, while temperatures have been higher than usual by 2.8 to 3.8 degrees Celsius. Evapotranspiration rates, measured by the Meteorological Institute, have been exceptionally high at 110–130% of the long-term average. Surface soil moisture remains low across most of the country, particularly in regions like Ljubljana, Lower Savinja, Pomurje, and Gorizia. Underground water reserves are also declining, with rivers such as the Mura, Upper Sava, Ljubljanica, and Soča recording very low water levels. While some rainfall is expected in the coming days, it will provide only temporary relief and will not fully address the ongoing drought.

Europe is burning and drying, scientists warn of a dangerous reversal

The article discusses the severe drought affecting Europe due to climate change, highlighting scientific findings linking human-caused global warming to increasingly extreme dry conditions. Researchers warn that rising temperatures are intensifying water loss from rivers, lakes, soil, and vegetation, leading to significant impacts across the continent. Examples include devastating wildfires in Spain and France, agricultural losses, reduced hydroelectric production, and historically low river levels. Scientists emphasize that these conditions are exacerbated by fossil fuel combustion and note that current droughts are more extreme than they would be without climate change. They caution that such disruptions could lead to higher food and energy prices, disproportionately affecting lower-income households. Experts stress that human activities have directly contributed to this crisis, with some regions experiencing droughts two months earlier than historical patterns.
