Dangerous weather scenario across southern Europe today with a robust upper low sitting the Alps and N Mediterranean and surface cyclone over Italy and Adriatic sea. Another powerful upper low is maintaining west of Iberia.
A HIGH risk is in effect for the S-CNTRL parts of the eastern Adriatic coast in Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and NW Albania for excessive torrential rainfall and flash flooding. Rainfalls in excess of 80-100 mm are expected along the entire lenght of the area, with some locations possibly receiving over 200 mm in 24h.
