It will be the hottest day of the week, but they're not ruling out another heat wave.

The article reports on expected heatwaves across parts of Central and Eastern Europe, including Slovenia, during early August 2026. It explains that a 'heat dome', a high-pressure system causing prolonged periods of extreme heat, is currently affecting regions such as Germany, Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria, northern Italy, and Slovenia. The highest temperature anomalies are predicted for Poland on Wednesday, while the UK, France, and the Iberian Peninsula may experience some relief due to oceanic air masses. In Ljubljana, temperatures are expected to remain extremely high throughout Thursday, particularly from eastern Slovenia and Croatia towards Hungary, Slovakia, northern Serbia, Romania, and Ukraine. The article also notes that the upcoming week could see another heatwave moving from Portugal, Spain, and France toward the Alps. Additionally, it provides data on July 2026 being unusually hot in Slovenia, ranking third among the hottest Julys since 1950, with an average temperature deviation of +2.0°C above the 1991–2020 reference period. Arso, Slovenia’s environmental agency, highlights that July 2026 was significantly drier than average, with only 49% rainfall
