Welcome to hell on earth, or as meteorologists call it – orange and red weather alarms! While Montenegro is roasting with temperatures up to 39 degrees Celsius, Serbia and Croatia are not far behind, with cities hitting over 40 degrees. The orange weather alarm in Montenegro covers the entire country, with special warnings for medium and high fire danger levels. In Serbia, cities like Ćuprija and Zaječar are recording up to 40 degrees, while Belgrade is the second hottest capital in Europe after Athens, with 38 degrees and a red weather alarm warning of dangerous conditions. Croatia is also melting, with temperatures up to 38 degrees inland and red weather alarms in some parts of the country.
But heat is not the only problem – afternoon showers and thunderstorms are expected, which might bring short relief but also additional dangers like hail and strong winds. Meteorologists warn of fire risks, especially in Montenegro where medium and high danger levels are active. The heat is so intense that animals in shelters in the USA are endangered, and local communities have to urgently respond due to air conditioning failures.
This heatwave is not just uncomfortable – it’s dangerous for health and life. Meteorologists predict temperatures will only slightly drop by the end of the week, so brace yourselves for scorching days. Is this the new normal or just a prelude to even hotter summer days? While everyone is frying under the sun, meteorologists remind us to be cautious – from fires to heat strokes.
If you thought this was just another summer heatwave, think again. This is when nature bares its teeth, and we wonder – where’s the shade? If you have a funny story about how you battled the heat or found a genius way to cool down, share it in the comments. Maybe your trick will save someone from heatstroke!
