A yellow alert remains in effect across Eastern Bulgaria and areas north of the mountains for strong southerly winds, with gusts reaching up to 90 km/h.
In the western parts of the country and the Rila-Rhodope region, rain will continue into the afternoon, with warnings for locally heavy precipitation, particularly in the southwestern regions.
