Christmas is just around the corner and yet the temperatures in Dubrovnik today resembled a summers day. It might be a little chilly to swim in the Adriatic, with temperatures around 19 degrees Celsius, but the air temperature today in the city hit 20 degrees.

Tourists were spotted wearing shorts and T-shirts as the unusually warm November temperatures even had a few people sun bathing. With endless blue skies and plenty of sunshine the temperatures directly in the sunshine were much higher.

This thermometer shows that in the sunshine highs reached 36 degrees today. However the warmer weather isn’t expected to continue much longer, forecasters predict that by the end of the week we will be back in our coats and under umbrellas. But for now we are making hay whilst the sun shines.
