Novi Sad, on the Danube in Serbia’s northern Vojvodina province, receives around 650 mm (about 26 inches) of rain a year, with a summer peak from convective storms typical of the flat Pannonian plain surrounding the city. The Danube’s broader flood risk affects the city much as it does Belgrade downstream, tied to sustained heavy rain across a very large international watershed. Faster local storms, often bringing hail that affects the region’s extensive farmland, are the more immediate day-to-day hazard. Because the plain’s flat terrain means storm cells can be quite localized, radar helps residents and farmers judge whether a cell is heading their way. Serbia’s Hydrometeorological Service operates the national radar network.
