Scorching July in Serbia: Heat up to 37°C and Unstable Weather Woes
Brace yourselves, because summer 2024 in Serbia is not for the faint-hearted! The Republic Hydrometeorological Institute of Serbia (RHMZ) warns of a brutal weather rollercoaster this July — scorching heat soaring up to 37 degrees Celsius, followed by sudden local showers and thunderstorms.
Heat that melts the asphalt
On July 13th, expect mostly sunny and hot weather with temperatures ranging from 32 to 37 degrees, with the hottest spots in the south and southeast of Serbia. In Belgrade, temperatures will reach around 33 degrees, literally making the city’s asphalt sizzle. A southeast wind will bring some relief, but don’t expect much — it will be light to moderate.
Unstable weather and showers
From July 15th, the situation changes — variable and humid weather with local showers and thunderstorms will hit. Temperatures will hover between 30 and 34 degrees, meaning the heat will persist but occasional rain will cool things down. Mountainous areas will see brief rainfall, and from July 17th, transient cloudiness with rain and thunderstorms will affect the north and other parts of Serbia.
Rain and stabilization
Rainfall will continue until July 18th, especially in the south and east, but by July 19th, weather is expected to stabilize across the country. After several days of battling heat and showers, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy pleasant weather.
What to expect?
This weather rollercoaster is not just uncomfortable; it can affect your health and mood. Heat up to 37 degrees can cause exhaustion, and sudden weather changes with showers can trigger headaches and irritability. So, dear readers, don’t forget to drink plenty of water, avoid direct sun during peak hours, and keep an umbrella handy just in case.
Conclusion
Summer 2024 in Serbia promises a true weather drama — from blistering heat to sudden downpours. RHMZ advises everyone to be prepared for anything because nature loves to keep us on our toes.
