Weather In Bulgaria Over The Weekend: Sunny Spells and Occasional Rain
On May 11, the weather is expected to be predominantly sunny, with heavier cloud cover anticipated in the East and South during the morning hours
As the night progresses, Western Bulgaria will see an increase in cloud cover, with light rainfall expected in some areas, particularly after midnight. Meanwhile, Eastern Bulgaria will experience clear skies with no precipitation anticipated. A moderate southwesterly wind will prevail, with minimum temperatures ranging between 7°C and 12°C, while Sofia is expected to see temperatures around 8°C.
By midday tomorrow, rain will cease in western regions, giving way to mostly sunny conditions as cloud cover dissipates. However, Central and Eastern Bulgaria will experience increasing cloudiness, with cumulus and cumulus-rain clouds developing, bringing showers and thunder in some areas, especially around the afternoon. A moderate to strong south-southwest wind will blow initially, gradually weakening later in the day and shifting to a northwest direction in most areas. Daytime temperatures will rise, reaching highs between 20°C and 25°C, although coastal areas along the Black Sea and Sofia will see slightly lower temperatures, around 20°C.
Along the Black Sea coast, sunny weather will prevail in the morning, but cumulus-rain clouds will develop in the afternoon, bringing showers and thunder in many places. A moderate to strong southwesterly wind will blow, diminishing in strength and shifting to the northwest later in the day. Maximum temperatures along the coast will range from 15°C in the north to 19°C-20°C in the south, with sea water temperatures around 9°C - 10°C and sea swell will be at 2-3 points.
In the mountainous regions of Western Bulgaria, light rain and snow above 2300 meters will occur overnight, but these conditions will cease by noon, with cloud cover breaking and decreasing. Meanwhile, the eastern half of the country's massifs will experience sunny weather in the morning, followed by the development of cumulus and cumulus-rain clouds in the afternoon, resulting in rain, particularly in the Rhodopes, accompanied by thunder. A strong, gusty southwesterly wind will affect the highest parts of the mountains, gradually weakening and shifting to the west-northwest later in the day. Temperatures at 1200 meters altitude will be around 13°C, and at 2000 meters, approximately 6°C.
