the possibility of rain in the middle of the tourist peak

At the beginning of the week something strange happened, some media and professionals started to say that “a calm Easter was predicted.” […] and the passage of storms was ruled out.” It didn’t take the models 24 hours to contradict them.

And the weather situation this Holy Week is one of the “tightest” in memory. The thermal anomalies do seem clear (it will be a little cooler than usual), but if we talk about precipitation… the models have been risking everything for days on the flip of a coin.

The guts of the problem. When we talk about meteorological models, we always have to take into account two main versions: the deterministic and the probabilistic.

In the 22 pages of the communication, the Executive led by Ursula von der Leyen points out to the applicants (countries of the Western Balkans, Ukraine and Moldova) the path to follow to achieve an integration that, the document points out, will be “gradual.” “The revised methodology […] offers candidate countries and potential candidates strengthened pathways for the ‘gradual integration’ of enlargement countries into certain EU policies, already before their accession, anticipating certain benefits and obligations of EU membership,” he notes.
