This week our country but also a large part of Europe will experience another heat wave.
The weather for most of the week is expected to be clear. However, in the hilly-mountainous reliefs, there will be alternating periods of cloudiness from noon to late afternoon. These clouds will be accompanied by rain with mostly low intensity, but occasionally and in short-term periods they will also be violent in the form of showers and thunderstorms accompanied by hail and electric discharges.
It is worth emphasizing the fact that despite the origin of the air masses from North Africa (dry and very hot) their passage over the Mediterranean sea made them filled with moisture. This made the midday temperatures feel several degrees higher for the human body than the values measured in the meteorological cage ("suffocating" heat).
However, according to the predicted maps, starting from next weekend, a significant drop in temperatures is expected, as well as rainfall in a large part of the territory.
