On July 18, 2026, authorities recorded 33 weather-related incidents across Slovenia, with the highest number occurring in the Gorenjska region. The majority of these were attributed to severe weather conditions, including heavy rainfall, strong winds, and localized thunderstorms. According to reports from the Republic Centre for Warning, the incidents were primarily concentrated around the regional warning centres in Kranj, with 24 recorded there, followed by smaller numbers in Slovenj Gradec, Maribor, and Celje. On the ground, 15 volunteer and one professional fire department unit responded to the situation, assisting with water extraction from buildings, roof repairs, and clearing fallen trees. The storm activity began in the afternoon of July 17, when strong winds swept through central Slovenia, causing widespread disruption. In the village of Nova Vas near Blok, a three-centimeter diameter hailstone was reported, while residents in the Kočevje area shared photos on Facebook showing damage caused by the storm. These accounts highlight the severity of the weather, which affected both urban and rural areas. The impact was particularly noticeable in the northern parts of the country, where several smaller rivers rose to medium water levels due to the heavy rains, according to hydrological reports issued by the Slovenian Environment Agency (ARSO). Meteorological forecasts indicated that the weather would continue to evolve throughout the day, with further rain showers and possible thunderstorms developing in the evening. The strongest winds were expected to come from the north, accompanied by gusts that could cause damage to infrastructure and vegetation. Temperatures during the day were predicted to range between 26 and 31 degrees Celsius, though they would drop significantly after the passage of a cold front later in the week. This cooling effect was anticipated to begin on Sunday, bringing relief to the generally hot conditions that had persisted over the previous days. The prolonged dry spell and high temperatures had already raised concerns about wildfire risks, prompting the Slovenian Rescue and Protection Authority to issue a major fire hazard alert for the entire country. This alert remained in place as the weather continued to pose a risk to forested areas. The combination of heat and low humidity created ideal conditions for fires to spread quickly, especially in regions with dense vegetation. In response to the forecasted weather patterns, ARSO issued an orange warning for much of the interior of Slovenia, indicating the potential for localised thunderstorms with strong wind gusts. The agency warned that some of these storms could be intense, leading to significant disruptions. The warning was based on satellite data and radar tracking, which showed the movement of storm systems originating from northern France and moving eastward through Austria into Slovenia. These systems were expected to reach the country in the late afternoon, bringing with them sudden changes in weather conditions. Local media outlets such as Demokracija and N1 Slovenija echoed these warnings, emphasizing the need for preparedness among residents and businesses. They noted that while the likelihood of severe thunderstorms was higher in the interior, the coastal regions of Primorska had a lower chance of experiencing similar intensity. Despite this, the overall trend suggested that the weather would remain volatile, with periods of heavy rain interspersed with sunny intervals. The National Weather Service (Neurje.si) provided additional insights, noting that a powerful storm system was expected to sweep across the country on Tuesday, bringing with it strong winds and potentially damaging hail. The service warned that the storm's path would be influenced by the movement of a cold front, which could lead to rapid changes in weather conditions. Local communities were advised to monitor updates and take necessary precautions, especially in areas prone to flooding or landslides. As the storm approached, emergency services were on standby to respond to any incidents. Firefighters were deployed to assist with tree removal and building access, while road maintenance crews worked to clear debris and ensure safe travel conditions. Public officials urged citizens to stay informed and follow official guidance, particularly regarding the potential for power outages and property damage. Looking ahead, meteorologists projected that the weather pattern would shift again by the end of the week, with a significant cold front expected to move through the country on Saturday. This change would bring cooler temperatures and a reduction in the risk of wildfires. However, the long-term outlook remained uncertain, with continued dry spells and high temperatures posing ongoing challenges for environmental management. The situation underscored the importance of vigilance and preparedness in the face of unpredictable weather patterns.
