Thanks to the winter cyclone that passed through the Adriatic last night, much of Dalmatia is covered in snow.
On Wednesday morning, almost all of Inland Dalmatia was blanketed under a thick snow cover. Most of the snow fell in the vicinity of Imotski and the surroundings of Vrlika, where the snow cover reached an incredible half meter in some areas. Such snow levels were not mentioned anywhere in any official forecasts, reports Dalmacija Danas on January 9, 2019.
The city of Imotski officially measured 23 centimeters of snow this morning. The first serious snow this year did not bring any major problems around Imotski, and the winter service cleared streets in the city and at entrances to the city. The situation is similar in the town of Vrgorac and the entire Vrgorac area.

Snow could also be seen on Biokovo and Brač from the Total Split headquarters Wednesday morning!
