Extreme bora in progress in SLO/CRO

Currently the winds are locally blowing over 160 km/h, even 180km/h reported. Extreme bora in progress along the Dinaric mountain range in Slovenia and Croatia. I'm not wind chasing today but it sure would be fun!

SW-Slovenia. Scale in bottom right in m/s. Forecast by ALADIN (ARSO).

Istra, W-Croatia.

  1. i'm in rijeka, and the wind is terrible (we call it bura)... trees pulled out, debris in the air, people carried away...

  3. In Slovenia we call it burja but the "bora" is an english term so I use it here.

    I like the video, spectacular shelf cloud. I definitely have a wish to storm chase in Croatia too this year. If there will be a good setup then you will see me there. :) Since I'm from Novo mesto, I don't have a very long drive to Croatia. :)
