Balkan temperatures swing as heavy rain heads for Greece
- Temperatures fluctuated dramatically in the Balkans last week, with unusually large differences between daytime highs and overnight lows – known as the diurnal range.
- An area of high pressure over the region brought prolonged sunshine during the day, while clear skies at night allowed temperatures to drop rapidly as heat escaped into the atmosphere without cloud cover to slow the cooling.
- In Kosanica, Montenegro, the average maximum temperature in October is 15C (59F), while the average minimum is 4C.
