The latest seasonal forecast maps give the first indications of what kind of weather may mark the rest of summer and the beginning of autumn in Europe.

Although long-term forecasts cannot accurately predict the weather for a specific day or location, they show trends that could have a significant impact on weather patterns in the coming months, writes the Severe Weather Europe portal.

According to published analysis, August could be hotter than the long-term average across much of southern and south-eastern Europe.

An area of high pressure is expected to dominate this area, bringing more stable weather, sunnier spells and less rainfall.

However, meteorologists warn that even such conditions do not rule out the possibility of short-lived but very intense storms that often develop after long periods of cool temperatures. high.

In the second half of the month, forecast models indicate the possibility of a change in atmospheric circulation. This could lead to the penetration of cooler air from northwestern Europe, with more frequent precipitation and a gradual drop in temperatures in some parts of the continent. Currently, it is difficult to accurately assess how pronounced these changes will be in the Balkans.

The development of the El Niño climate phenomenon, which affects the distribution of ocean temperatures and atmospheric currents throughout the world, is attracting special attention from meteorologists. Although Europe usually feels its effects later than other parts of the planet, experts believe that during autumn and winter this could affect the frequency of extreme weather events, including heavier rainfall, storm systems and more pronounced temperature swings.

Forecasts for autumn show the possibility of warmer than average weather in much of Europe, while the distribution of rainfall could be very unequal. Some areas may face long periods of drought, while others may experience heavy rains and localized flooding.

Meteorologists stress that seasonal forecasts represent an estimate of possible weather trends, rather than an accurate forecast for a specific day. Therefore, expectations in the coming weeks will be further adapted to new data and the development of atmospheric conditions.

Citizens are advised to regularly monitor official meteorological forecasts and warnings, especially during periods when high temperatures, storms or other potentially dangerous weather phenomena are expected. /tesheshi.com/
