A blast of cold northern air swept across Dalmatia today, bringing an unusual bout of sleet to the coastal town of Tučepi. A video circulating on social media shows sleet being driven sideways by a biting north wind, whistling through the tress – a rare sight for this time of year.

Temperatures across the wider Dubrovnik region dropped sharply overnight, with the current temperature in Dubrovnik hovering around 10°C. The strong north wind has introduced a noticeable wind chill, making conditions feel even colder than the thermometer suggests.

The good news? This sudden cold snap is expected to be short-lived. Forecasts predict a return to warmer and more stable weather starting tomorrow, much to the relief of locals and early-season visitors alike.

Tučepi selo sada.
Vidio sam da zec traži mater.
Snježna mečava uz jake udare bure.
