Tropical nights are defined as periods where the temperature between 10:00 p.m. of one day and 10:00 p.m. of the following day remains at or above 20 degrees Celsius.
While this phenomenon is a regular occurrence in regions such as Primorska, larger cities, and the thermal belt, the occurrence of tropical nights at high altitudes is noted as unusual. At Arso, observers reported that the temperature on Rogla, situated 1,495 meters above sea level, did not fall below 21 degrees Celsius during the night of Tuesday. The source noted that while tropical nights have been recorded on Rogla previously—specifically on August 4th and August 8th in 2013—the prospect of recording two such consecutive nights this year is considered unusual.
The data highlights the significance of tracking such atmospheric conditions at elevated locations. Monitoring these temperature patterns at altitudes above 1,000 meters provides valuable meteorological information. The consistent recording of tropical conditions at heights above 1,400 meters, as seen on Rogla, warrants attention, as it deviates from typical seasonal patterns observed in lower-lying areas.
