Eighteen cities in Bulgaria registered highest temperatures for decades on Monday, with that in Rousse on the Dunabe River reaching 26.9 degrees Celsius, the highest on the same day since 1930.
According to data from the National Meteorology and Hydrology Institute under the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, almost all the big cities in Bulgaria, except capital city Sofia, witnessed record high temperatures on Monday.
The temperatures in Varna, Plovdiv and Veliko Tarnovo were the highest since 1961. There were even sunbathers on the beach of the Black Sea in Varna.
The high temperatures came after Bulgaria experienced an extremely cold winter, with many regions hit by record low temperatures. |
