“If today there are still maximums of 30 degrees, tomorrow there will be temperatures above 20 degrees only in Dobrogea and the east of Muntenia, and in the rest the thermal maximums will be between 8 and 18 degrees. There will be decreases in thermal values in some regions of 18 – 20 degrees compared to the last few days.From Thursday, the highs will be even lower, reaching below normal for the period.
The cooling is associated with an atmospheric front that brings rains from the center of Europe, especially showers that from this evening will be signaled in Banat south of Crișana, Transylvania, regions that fall under the yellow code warning. These manifestations of instability and rain will extend on Wednesday, it will rain in the south, center and east. In the high mountain areas there will be sleet and snow, the nights will be cold.
