Headline: dynamic cloud cover expected during new year’s week
Subhead: Prepare for wintry conditions as Bulgaria braces for a mix of weather in the upcoming days.
Embarking on the new year celebrations, Bulgarians can expect a dynamic mix of weather conditions, with periods of cloud cover, snowfall, and varying temperatures, as the Bulgarian Meteorological Institute forecasts.
Stephan’s Day (Dec 27) will kick off with a cloudy sky, punctuated by brief moments of sunshine in parts of Western Bulgaria. However, the weather will take a turn for the worse in the afternoon as a snow-carrying front sweeps in from the northeast, predicted to reach southwestern regions. The snowfall will intensify in Ludoigorieto, Central North Bulgaria, the Balkans, the Stara Planina range, and the Rhodope Mountains. Strong winds, accompanied by snowdrifts, pose risk to traffic, particularly in eastern regions and mountain areas.
Unexpected snowfall during the holiday break might occur but will be meager and concentrated in Eastern Bulgaria. As the weekend progresses, skies will clear, particularly on Sunday.
In the New Year’s week, expect dynamic cloud cover, with predominantly sunny conditions from Monday to Friday, marked by morning mist. Temperatures will hover between 1°C and 6°C by Friday. Over the weekend and into the following week, temperatures may dip to -8°C to -9°C, but they will gradually rise, with some areas experiencing temperatures up to 10°C to 15°C by early 2025.
