According to the calendar, spring has already started. But yesterday’s weather conditions reminded us how changeable spring can be. Zagreb and its surrounding area woke up in winter wonderland. White snowflakes surprised all those who were sure that summer is at the door and that winter times are far away behind.

The meteorologists were right this time. The weather in Croatia was really cloudy with rain and snow. But they also said that the weather would get nicer starting from the north.

Zavizan had the lowest temperature yesterday morning. It was minus 6 degrees. Sljeme was warmer with the temperature of minus 4 degrees Celsius and 4 centimeters of snow. The weather forecast said that the highest temperature during the day would be between 6 and 12. On the Adriatic coast the higher temperature would reach between 13 and 18 degrees Celsius.
