The Adriatic — the last hot pulse today, then a north-west wet reversal
CRESTING · September 17, 2026 · NO. 0917
THE DOME
The south-Dalmatian heat peaks today — the Neretva corridor at 31.3 °C, Supetar on Brač 30.6, the Port of Split and the Marjan interface 29.1 — before cooler air, with coastal wind maxima across the window at 8.5 m/s on the Neretva and 8.4 at the Port of Gruž. Then the Genova Low's downstream trough builds a wet reversal into the north-west, the window carrying rain probability to 99 percent on the Rijeka and Zagreb corridors. (Internal situational context.)
