While temperatures across much of the country were slightly lower on Sunday compared to the preceding day, the region of Primorska experienced notably high heat due to the night breeze. Wind was also present during the morning hours. According to Anže Medved, the on-call meteorologist at the Slovenian Environmental Agency (Arso), a measurement station in Markovec recorded a peak temperature of 40.1 degrees Celsius between 12 and 13 o’clock.
Later in the afternoon, a maestral wind passed through, causing the temperature to decrease to 36.5 degrees Celsius. Arso noted that the previous absolute temperature record for the Markovec station was set on August 5, 2017, at 38.8 degrees Celsius. Another location, Jezersko, also recorded high temperatures, measuring 34.3 degrees Celsius during the early afternoon.
The agency also provided context regarding historical records for this area, though the specific previous record temperature for Jezersko was not fully detailed in the initial report. The fluctuation in temperatures, ranging significantly across different locations and times, highlights the variable weather patterns observed throughout the day. The data indicates that despite a slight overall dip in temperature across many areas, localized conditions, such as the night breeze in Primorska, contributed to extreme readings.
