Climate forcing agents

Today clouds expected to break and decrease to mostly sunny in many areas. In isolated places in the western half of the country, mainly in the afternoon, it will rain, turning to snow in the mountains over 1,800 m. Mostly light wind from the northwest.

The eco-minister and the mayor of Sofia signed a contract for improving the air quality, reported NOVA TV. 

The Minister of Environment and Water Neno Dimov and the Mayor of Sofia Municipality Yordanka Fandakova signed a contract for improving the quality of the atmospheric air in Sofia.

Today the cloudинесс will be significant. Mainly in the afternoon, in some places, slight rainfalls are expected , in the mountains over 1800 meters - snowfalls. The atmospheric pressure is lower than usual. At dusk it will begin to rise. It will moderate northwestern wind, in eastern Bulgaria - northeastern and with it will soon penetrate a slightly colder air.

2018 will probably be ranked third or fourth as the warmest year since meteorological observation in the world. This was said in the show "This morning" bTV by the climatologist Prof. Georgi Rachev, who just returned from Antarctica.

''The ice in Antarctica is definitely melting'', he said.

One-third of Himalayan glaciers will melt by the end of the century due to climate change, threatening water sources for 1.9 billion people, even if current efforts to reduce climate change succeed, an assessment warns.

The world is on course to miss its "best chance" of preventing runaway climate change by ensuring global greenhouse gas emissions peak in 2020, researchers warned Tuesday, reports AFP. 

Air quality in Sofia improved last year compared to 2017. Exceedances of fine particulate matter standards were 17% lower in 2018 compared to the previous year.

As levels of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide rise and warm the globe, Antarctica's ice will become more vulnerable to cycles on an astronomical scale, particularly the tilt of our planet is as it spins around its axis.

Today, from the Northwest, the cloudiness will increase, at dusk in the southeastern regions. Almost without precipitation. The atmospheric pressure will continue to decrease and will be lower than the average for the month.

Today in the morning hours cloudiness will be significant in some places, mainly in the northern and eastern parts of Bulgaria and rainfalls are expected there - conditions for icing. Before noon from the west the clouds will tear down and decrease in most areas to mostly sunny. Atmospheric pressure is and will remain higher than the average for the month.
