The aim of our project was to monitor the meteorological phenomena in Preko in 2017. We started our observations on 1.01.2017, and lasted until 31.21.2017. We have selected the following meteorological changes: fog, frost, hail and thunder. We compared our data with us to the nearest meteorological station in Zadar. The questions are:
1.What conditions do the selected meteorological phenomena occur?
2. How often do they appear?
3.What annuals occur?
For the development of our project, we used the official web pages of DHMZ and the "Climate Atlas of Croatia". From the selected meteorological phenomena during the exploration period, we noticed the thunder, the frost, the hail, the dew, until we noticed it.
As we assumed the most common phenomenon was the thunder and the darkest rose. Our observations could not be performed for 24 hours and we probably missed it, especially those that happen early in the morning or at night. This is probably the reason why we only saw the dagger once, although according to the data closest to the weather station Zadar was a very common occurrence.
Our hypothesis that the most faded will be in the winter and that the most common occurrence will be the thunder we have confirmed, while the hypothesis of appearing beats and roses in spells and falls have not been confirmed. We have confirmed the fogging hypothesis at all seasons although according to HDMZ data it is not so. Probably because we do not always recognize the fog.
We saw the thunderstorm in all seasons, except in the spring. Frost, weed and dew we saw in winter and fog in all seasons.
Thunderstorms occur in high temperature conditions, high humidity and low pressure, fog in high humidity conditions and low morning temperatures, hail and frost in low air temperature conditions, and dew in low morning and high humidity conditions.
