[Roberto]

A week of very unsettled weather in the Adriatic, with thunderstorms (locally Nevera/Neverin) of short to very short duration having caused a lot of damages.

For the Molat episode, hourly satellite images show no sign at a time t, and a dissipating cloud top on the following hour t+1, possibly meaning a very short duration phenomenon.

Saw this the other day... https://www.reddit.com/r/sailing/comments/cblcce/friend_send_me_this_today_scary_croatia/ - some saying it is the bay in Vis/Kut. Either way, glad we weren't there!

I've anchored in Komiza a couple of times but it's never been anything like that, thank God. :ambivalence:
