While tourists love Croatian summers for their dry heat which allows for little else than constant floating around in the beautiful Adriatic sea, it gets very boring for those of us who live and work here, hoping each little cloud might bring some respite in the form of rain or even a breeze that doesn’t cause a sweat.
As summer makes itself known and we sit fanning ourselves in the middle of the first Croatian heatwave of 2021, it’s difficult to imagine beind able to move around without our clothes sticking to us in the process. When might this hot snap end?
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, as was forecast by Tea Blazevic for N1, We’re currently in the very first Croatian heatwave of this year, which has yet to culminate and will, with any luck, do so around the middle of the week. Temperatures locally could rise to an extremely and uncomfortably high 38, and the nights will be unpleasant, tropical, which means that the minimum temperature will not fall below 20.
It is therefore not surprising that a high-level heat wave warning is in force across the entire country, as such unforgiving temperatures can adversely affect human health in a multitude of ways. If her prognosis is anything to go off, towards the end of the week, things will thankfully begin to settle down and temperatures will drop again.
