Clear Tuesday, Two Degrees Warmer Than Yesterday
Burgas greets Tuesday with a clear sky and almost no wind. By 2 p.m. the thermometer reaches 14 degrees, two more than on Monday, when it was cloudy with light rain. The sun rises at 06:53 and sets at 16:54. The afternoon is good for a walk in a lighter jacket, while the morning and evening stay damp and cool.
Wet Benches and Cars at 8 a.m.
During the night it is around 4 degrees. At 8 a.m. it is 6, and humidity reaches 96 percent, so the grass, the benches in the parks and the car windows are wet. The chance of precipitation in the morning is 20 percent, and if any falls, it will be very little, about a millimeter. The umbrella can stay at home; a jacket with a hood is enough.
Drivers should turn on the windshield blower before they set off. The wet asphalt grips less well on bridges and on the roads along the lakes, so when braking it is good to leave more distance to the car ahead.
West Wind of About 12 km/h and a Calm Sea
The wind is from the west, about 12 km/h, at times up to 18. On the coast this means it blows from land toward the sea, the waves off the beach are low, and in the Sea Garden it is barely noticeable. At noon the sky is mostly clear, no rain is expected, and humidity drops to 60 percent. Outside it feels like about 12 degrees.
The ultraviolet index is 2 and the sun does not burn, so you do not need sunscreen. The air is clean: the air quality index is 24, which is a good level.
The evening cools down quickly. At 8 p.m. it is 8 degrees, the clouds break up, and humidity rises again to 90 percent.
Flamingos at Atanasovsko and Pelicans at Vaya
Calm and clear weather is good for birdwatching. The Burgas lakes lie on the Via Pontica, the route along which migratory birds pass along the Black Sea. The big autumn wave of storks and pelicans is at the end of summer and in September. In November the birds that stay for the winter gather on the lakes: ducks, geese, pygmy cormorants and Dalmatian pelicans.
At Atanasovsko Lake you can see pink flamingos, which in recent years have stayed there almost all year round. At Vaya and in the Poda protected area near Mandra, the water is full of ducks and cormorants. It is best to watch early in the morning and in the last hour before sunset. Without strong wind the water is smooth and the birds can be seen from afar, and with binoculars and warm clothing one can stand calmly by the shore for an hour.
Jacket in the Morning, Sweatshirt in the Afternoon
The morning calls for a jacket and a scarf, especially for the children who set off for school before 8 a.m. Towards noon the jacket can come off, leaving a sweatshirt or sweater, but in the evening you will need it again.
Anyone who runs or cycles should go out between 12 and 4 p.m., when it is driest and warmest. After sunset at 16:54 it gets dark quickly, so the car lights should be on by around 5 p.m. The low afternoon sun shines in the eyes of drivers heading west; on the road to Aytos and Sredets a sun visor will be needed.
Wednesday: Cloudy and Up to 18 Degrees
Tomorrow is cloudy and dry, from 6 to 18 degrees, and the west wind strengthens to 17 km/h with gusts up to 33.
