After a relatively stable day with minimal rainfall expected today, strong atmospheric changes and instability are forecast for tonight and Sunday. Dense clouds are expected to form locally, bringing scattered showers, thunderstorms, lightning, and possible hail.
Rainfall will initially be localized, covering smaller areas, and is expected to begin in the northwestern and northern parts of Albania and Montenegro before gradually spreading to parts of Kosovo overnight and into Sunday morning.
Over the next two days, strong convective or vertical developments are possible, which may result in intense local downpours and hail in certain regions.
The heaviest rainfall is expected in northern Albania extending toward the central regions and also in parts of Kosovo, where heavy rain may cause short-term local flooding. The rainfall will not be continuous but will come in waves depending on atmospheric developments.
Less precipitation is expected in southern Albania and southeastern North Macedonia, although all areas are likely to experience at least one episode of heavy rainfall.
Rain showers will first appear in the north or northwest of Albania before reaching Kosovo on Sunday morning. Throughout Sunday, intermittent heavy rain is expected in several areas of Kosovo.
As October comes to an end and November begins, forecasts indicate a noticeably warmer start to the new month due to strong air currents from the south and southwest.
In summary, Sunday and Monday will bring intermittent rainfall, which in some areas may cause short-term issues due to high intensity. Heavy showers with lightning, thunder, and hail are also possible. Weather improvement is expected by Monday afternoon, while a new passing wave of rain — and snow in higher mountainous areas — may occur on Tuesday.
