Extreme weather phenomena, such as violent storms and heat waves, are becoming the norm in Romania, according to climatologist Alex Trandafir. He points out that global warming allows the atmosphere to accumulate more moisture, leading to more violent storms. In recent days, Romania has been hit by storms with 150 km/h winds and heatwaves, and experts fear that these phenomena will continue to intensify. Temperature records are alarming and the outlook for the future is worrying, with increased risks of damage.
