On Tuesday, the weather will remain mostly sunny. Minimum temperatures will range from 12°C to 17°C, while maximum temperatures will range from 30°C to 36°C. Winds will blow from the north and northeast at speeds of 1–5 m/s.

Thursday will be mostly sunny, but convective clouds are expected to develop during the day, creating conditions for localized rain accompanied by thunderstorms and the possibility of isolated storms.

Minimum temperatures will range from 12°C to 17°C, while maximum temperatures will range from 30°C to 34°C. Winds will mainly blow from the north and northeast at speeds of 1–7 m/s, while during storms there may be temporary increases in wind speed and changes in direction.

On Friday, the weather will be mostly sunny, with slight to moderate cloud development during the day. Minimum temperatures will range from 12°C to 17°C, while maximum temperatures will range from 30°C to 35°C. Winds will mainly blow from the north and northeast at speeds of 1–4 m/s.

Overall, the period from August 10–14, 2026, will be characterized by mostly stable, sunny, and hot weather, with maximum temperatures reaching 36°C. Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to be the hottest days, while Thursday will bring more favorable conditions for the development of convective clouds, with possible localized rain, thunderstorms, and isolated storms.

High temperatures, combined with increased solar radiation, will create significant heat stress and high to very high UV radiation levels.

Due to the high UV index, people are advised to avoid direct exposure to the sun between 10:00 and 16:00, use sunscreen, wear a hat and UV-protective sunglasses, and drink sufficient amounts of water. Children, the elderly, and people who are sensitive to high temperatures should take extra precautions.

In the agricultural sector, conditions will generally be favorable for crop development, but water demand will remain high due to elevated temperatures and increased evapotranspiration.

The Kosovo Hydrometeorological Institute will continue to monitor weather conditions and, in the event of any changes in weather patterns or the development of other meteorological phenomena, will inform the public in a timely manner about new developments and forecasts.

Weather forecasts may change over time, particularly in the event of convective weather developments. Citizens are therefore advised to follow the latest announcements and updates from the Kosovo Hydrometeorological Institute.
