The Czech Republic is expecting a cloudy week, but temperatures rise above 20 degrees. Storms will also come

In the Czech Republic this week it will be mostly cloudy with showers and at the beginning of the week with thunderstorms. But temperatures can rise above 20 degrees Celsius on most days. Temperatures will generally stay above zero at night, but ground frosts may appear in the second half of the week.

Thunderstorms will already hit part of the country on Monday, which will begin to form in the afternoon in southwestern Bohemia, from where they will move eastward, with the strongest expected to be in the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands. In total, over 50 millimeters of rain could occasionally fall by Tuesday morning, and intense rainfall may fluctuate the levels of some smaller rivers. This follows from the weekly forecast and current notice of the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (ČHMÚ).

“Thunderstorms will begin to form this afternoon, first in southwestern Bohemia, later also in the area of ​​the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands. They will not arrive in eastern Moravia and Silesia until the evening,” the ČHMÚ staff said on the network https://twitter.com/CHMUCHMI/status/1787412924786475431.

Storms will be accompanied by strong winds, which in gusts can reach a speed of around 70 kilometers per hour, and occasionally hail. Later in the afternoon and evening, according to meteorologists, weakening storms from Bavaria will probably still arrive in the Czech Republic, which will partially affect the south with strong winds and other, more permanent precipitation.
