Dubrovnik experienced an unexpected weather twist today as heavy rain gave way to a hailstorm, transforming parts of the city into a wintry scene. The iconic Stradun, usually bustling with visitors, resembled a snow-covered street straight out of Norway, evoking images of a white Christmas.

The unusual icy spectacle didn’t last long, as city workers quickly cleared the hail, restoring the Stradun to its familiar state. While brief, the event was a vivid reminder of how unpredictable weather in Dubrovnik can be, even in December.
