The beginning of the new week will bring very bad weather to our area.
Unfavorable winter weather will rule again in our area. All this will be the responsibility of a deep pressure trough, he informs iMeteo.sk.
A very strong wind is blowing
In Slovakia, the wind will start gaining strength on Monday at noon and will gradually grow stronger. “The strongest gusts of wind are expected in the night from Monday to Tuesday. It should blow over our entire territory, but the wind will affect western Slovakia and the mountainous region the most,” supplied by iMeteo.
Gusts of wind should reach a speed of up to 70 km/h, but in the mountains of northern Slovakia, the wind could reach a speed of up to 100 km/h.
In addition to strong winds, low pressure Nicolas will also bring significant precipitation. The northern regions of Slovakia are prone to strong northwesterly currents, and this type of situation also brings calamities to the northern regions, especially if such a situation lasts for several days.
There is a serious threat of a blizzard
The first precipitation starts together with the wind, that is already on Monday during the day. Snowfall is expected throughout our territory, with the exception of western Slovakia, where it should mainly rain or mixed precipitation below a height of 500 meters.
However, the snowfall will not be significant. However, this will not apply to the Žilina Region, the north of the Prešov Region and the High Tatras region, where the windward effect will be felt. So, I expect permanent and significant snowfall here from Monday noon, which should occur until Tuesday evening.
About 5 cm of new snow should fall seriously, but up to 20 cm of fresh snow could fall in the mountains of the Žilina Region, where it will snow more permanently.
Since there is also a threat of strong wind in addition to snowfall, a blizzard will form especially in the Žilina region. So you have to be very careful on the roads on Monday.
