The first significant snowfall of the season could reach Hungary today!
Hungary’s certain regions could see light snowfall today. A chilly cold snap is poised to hit north-eastern Hungary today, bringing a chance of light snowfall and sleet—though don’t dust off those sledges just yet!
The first big snowfall of 2024
As Femina writes, a cold snap is expected to bring potential snow and sleet to Hungary’s north-east today, though it’s unlikely to be substantial enough to bring out sledges. Recent snowfall in cities like Dunaújváros was due to industrial snow, a phenomenon occurring in foggy, smoggy conditions near factories, where rising water vapour crystallises in low-level stratus clouds. However, with a cold front moving in from the south, normal snow may develop in the Bükk and Zemplén regions, where temperatures could hover around freezing. Light snow and drizzle are anticipated, though any lasting snow cover remains unlikely at this stage.
