Weather in RomaniaDo you want to know the weather in Romania? The weather, until recently, was very easy to predict. Now the weather seems to be getting rather confused at time, with snow falling in June and wonderfully warm days in the middle of Winter. This year, the weather in Romania became very cold in May. This made the life in Romania a little harder, as it also killed off all the new buds and flowers. Our apple and plum harvests this year have been much smaller than normal.
Winter in Romania
I love Winter. It can be very cold here. We can expect snow from November to March in Bucharest. It is a very variable season. The first year I was here, I could not go far without falling over. Last Winter, the weather in Romania was warmer than normal. We hardly had any snow at all - only 2 showers. If you are in Bucharest, an excellent tip is to walk down the middle of the smaller roads and take care of tower blocks, as every year a few people get severely injured or killed by falling icicles. I missed a small avalanche in Bucharest, as all the snow on the roof of my small apartment block fell into the street - straight on top of my friends new car! The snow in the mountains is far more reliable - there is lots of snow every year - making Romania a top place for skiiing.
Spring in Romania
When Spring arrives in Romania, the whole mood of the place lightens up. Bucharest's towering blocks seem to sparkle in the sun and we enjoy lots of blue skies. The weather in Romania is then generally good, with light rains. We start to think about heading off into the countryside. There is a small period in the countryside where the rain and mud keep us in Bucharest. It is a tricky time in the countryside, as you think that the weather is great for planting out the new seeds - next week a big frost can strike. However if you leave it too late, then Summer kicks in before you have time to add more seeds - and your plants suffer from too much heat and too little water!
Summer is Hot in Romania!
Summer in Romania is very dry and very, very hot. If you come in Summer, you will soon want to escape the hot streets of Bucharest, and head into the cooler mountains. If you are planning to live in Bucharest, over the summer, you will need to air conditioning. This of course annoys Romanians, who are convinced every illness is linked to draughts, air conditioners and wind in general. The sea is warm in the summer, and great for children, as many of the beaches gently slope into the sea. The problem is that in recent years, the Summer is also the time of the great yearly Algal blooms. This makes swimming no fun at all. Escape into the mountains in the Summer, and experience the cooler mountain climate. However, particularly in recent years, you get hot weather in Romania, followed by amazing storms in the afternoon. After this, the weather is cool for a day or two, before the heat kicks in, followed by another storm. Autumn in Romania
Romainan Autumns are wonderful. The landscape needs to be admired. It is full of glorious reds, bright yellows and orange leaves, which no camera which can really catch. The weather in Romania at this time, is warm, sunny, and the skies are blue. This a great time to visit Romania, when the weather is not too hot. Whatever the weather, Romania is a wonderful place to visit. There are things to do in every season.
