While the temperatures in Niš soar to +35 degrees Celsius and air conditioners struggle to cool down, some people are already buying firewood for heating this winter! Yes, you read that right – while everyone is thinking about cooling off, Niš residents are preparing for the cold days and the warmth of wood stoves. The price of firewood has remained the same for two years – 7 dinars per cubic meter, and sellers say many have already bought wood in April and May. “I heat with firewood, and I’m already thinking about the winter supply. Prices are the same as last year,” say buyers. Some lucky ones have their own forests and don’t need to buy, but most are figuring out how to manage. Sellers warn that prices will likely rise by the end of the month and during autumn, as firewood consumption has dropped due to cheaper gas and fewer suppliers. Despite the +35 outside, Niš residents are already planning for winter because preparation time doesn’t wait. This is madness – while the world cools down, Niš is burning with worry about winter! If you have your own firewood, congrats, but if not, better start thinking about buying before prices jump. What do you think about this unusual situation? Have you already bought firewood or are you waiting for colder days? Drop a comment and let’s see who’s ready for winter and who’s just enjoying the summer heat!
