Following an unprecedented warm workweek, the Czech Republic is bracing for a significant cool down during the final weekend of August. According to meteorologist Dagmar Honsová, temperatures are set to drop by approximately 10 degrees Celsius, transitioning from around 30 degrees Celsius to a more moderate range of about 20 degrees Celsius.

This cooling trend is attributed to a cold front that will sweep through the country, heralding a change in prevailing weather conditions. Meteorologist Honsová elucidated, “After its passage, the warm southwest currents will yield to cooler northwest currents. Beginning the following week, daytime temperatures are expected to dip below the summer threshold of 25°C.”

The decline in temperature is poised to commence over the weekend, although certain eastern regions may still experience tropical temperatures on Saturday. The upcoming weekend is also forecasted to bring abundant rainfall. Honsová has alerted the populace to anticipate potent thunderstorms, particularly on Saturday, potentially accompanied by hazardous meteorological events.

As the new week unfolds, Thursday is projected to be predominantly sunny, albeit with occasional late afternoon cloud cover. Morning temperatures are estimated to range between 18°C and 13°C, with afternoon temperatures spanning from 29°C to 33°C.

Moving to Friday, the skies will turn cloudy to partly cloudy, gradually veering towards overcast conditions, interspersed with sporadic rain, showers, and thunderstorms. Honsová has advised that some of these thunderstorms might be robust. Morning temperatures are expected to fluctuate between 21°C and 17°C, while afternoon temperatures will span 28°C to 33°C.

Saturday anticipates mostly cloudy weather accompanied by intermittent rain and vigorous thunderstorms. Parts of Bohemia are slated to experience persistent rainfall. Morning temperatures will range between 20°C and 16°C, with afternoon temperatures varying from 25°C to 29°C, and even reaching up to 32°C in eastern areas.

As the weekend concludes, Sunday is projected to feature mostly cloudy skies with rain, showers, and occasional thunderstorms. Morning temperatures are forecasted to span from 19°C to 15°C, while afternoon temperatures will reach approximately 19°C to 23°C, and around 25°C in the eastern regions.

The meteorological picture for the subsequent days remains predominantly cloudy, with intermittent rain or showers forecasted for both Monday and Tuesday. Morning temperatures are expected to range from 14°C to 10°C, with afternoon temperatures hovering between 18°C and 22°C.

Wednesday’s forecast foresees cloudy conditions with occasional showers. Morning temperatures are predicted to range from 13°C to 9°C, while afternoon temperatures will fluctuate between 20°C and 24°C.
