A winter without snow – forecasters expect a warm and rainy January

Forecasts for this month predict rainy and relatively warm weather across Macedonia, with little snow in the mountains and none in the lower lands.

During mid January, temperatures can even reach double digits. Most low parts of the country, including the capital Skopje, have yet to see any snow this year, and prospects look bleak in February as well, which is expected to be drier than January.
