AIR TEMPERATURE
Mean monthly air temperature
Mean April air temperature ranged from 9,9ºС in Dimitrovgrad to 14,2ºС in Belgrade, and on
the mountains from 3,0ºС at Kopaonik to 8,3ºС on Zlatibor (Figure 1).
Departure of the mean monthly air temperature from the normal1 for the 1981–2010 base
period ranged from -0,5ºС in Zajecar to 1,5ºС on Crni Vrh, in Belgrade 1,4ºС (Figure 2).
Mean April air temperature, based on the percentile method2 was in the normal category in
most of the country and warm category in Banatski Karlovac, Belgrade and Crni Vrh (Figure
3).
1 Term normal refers to climatological standard normal, that is, the average value of a particular climate
element, calculated for the period from February 1, 1981 to December 31, 2010 2 nth percentile of a variable refers to the value of the observed variable below which there is n percent of data
previously arranged in an ascending order

Mean daily air temperature in Belgrade, based on the percentile method was in the normal
category most of the month. At the beginning of the first and middle of the second and third
decade, mean daily air temperature was in the categories from extremely cold to cold. Most of
the second decade and in the period at end of the month it was extremely warm (Figure 4).
Daily course of the mean daily air temperature and the accompanying percentiles for the
stations Sombor, Novi Sad, Loznica, Negotin, Kragujevac, Zlatibor, Nis and Vranje are given

OVERVIEW OF THE SYNOPTIC SITUATION*
A few deeper disruptions, incursions of the cold air through influence of cyclone activity
from the north of the continent, occasionally with cyclone activity in western and central
Mediterranean; prevalence of anticyclone and period of dry and very warm weather.
Period at the beginning of the month was characterized by cutoff of the upper air cyclone
across the Balkans and its transfer toward central, then eastern Mediterranean and the Aegean
Sea. This process maintained changeable, cold and wet weather, precipitation was observed in
eastern and southeastern parts of the country, in the low-lying areas with scattered snow.
Period in the middle of the first decade was marked by establishment of northeasterly upper
air circulation due to the pertaining upper air depression in the Levant area along with ridge
across the Balkans.
Brief disruption of the ridge at the end of the first decade and shallow ill formation in the field
of geopotential brought slight oscillations of the maximum air temperature and light rain in
northwest of the country. Hence, weather remained settled, dry, gradually warmer and
predominantly sunny until the middle of the month.
As of April 14, new incursion from the north took place followed by significant ill formation
in meridional direction, deepening of upper air trough as well as influence and passage of the
cold front within the spatial cyclone from the north of the continent. Weather was cloudy and
rainy, in low-lying areas with rain, on the mountains of southwestern and central Serbia with
snow.
In the subsequent period, at the beginning of the second half of April, weather was more
settled with establishment of the ridge along with periphery of anticyclone emanating from
the western Europe. Simultaneously, new surface depression was developed in the north of
the continent along with frontal system, which occasionally disrupted ridge with shallow
waves, whereas the main cloudy system waved across the central parts and the Pannonia
Plain. Additionally, cyclone circulation strengthened and maintained in the western and
central Mediterranean producing warm airwave from the southwest. Consequently, at the end
of the second decade, it was very warm at times.
The ensuing days, until the middle of the third decade, mostly dry weather remained in the
north but somewhat colder compared to the previous period given the passage of the shallow
ill formation in the upper air circulation and weakly pronounced atmospheric fronts across our
territory. Elsewhere, it was rather rainy owing to the influence of the cyclone from
Mediterranean.
Period from the middle of the third decade until the end of the month was characterized by
influence and passage of another cold atmospheric front from the north followed by weak
gradient cyclone field, unsettled and relatively warm air mass as well as rainy weather with
intermittent patches of rain and isolated showers.
