Non sono croato, vengo dall’Inghilterra, stamattina stavo controllando la temperatura e ho visto che a Zagabria c’era 1 grado e a Spalato (a circa 160 miglia di distanza) era 14 gradi. Non ho quasi mai visto una differenza di temperatura di 13 gradi in Inghilterra, ma è normale per la Croazia?

Go look at a topological map and you’ll quickly realize why it’s as such.
yes, sometimes differances are even bigger. You don’t even need to compare Zagreb and Split, it’s enough to to pass through St. Rok tunnel, on one side -10 on other side + 15
Yes thats normal. If you look at satelite photos of the land you will see geographical diffrence between croatia proper and dalmatia
Yes, one part of the country is continental and another is mediterranean and in between there is a mountain range that prevent this two to mix.

yes
It’s due to thermal moderation by the Adriatic sea. Without it the temperatures would be pretty similar, as they are not that far apart in latitude. You can see this in the cities further north like Trieste where as you can see from the map the temp. difference is also significant.
No it’s not normal, in winter temperature difference should be even higher.
Indeed it is.
Yes, South of Croatia is the warmest part of the Country.
Especially when Jugo( Southern wind brings warm air from Africa)
Yes. It is normal. Sometimes we have 20+ in Split and subzero in Zagreb.
Yes, very often even closer than 160 miles. For example, today the average temperature in Rijeka will be 13 degrees, but Delnice (just 30 miles away) will be -1 degrees. Croatia is at the intersection of Mediterranean and continental climate types (it’s a bit more complicated, but basically this), and there is a lot of height differences and different microclimatic conditions for such a small area.
As long as it’s not +15C in Zagreb in late December, which has happened on multiple occasions, I’m good.
One is a coastal city, the other is not. There is also big ass mountain between them, which is why there is an even starker difference. You can literally see the mountain on the map, it’s the edge between green/yellow and blue.
Yes
Yup, Hell, even places themselves can have extreme temp differences.
Island of Hvar couple of years back had extreme temperature warning of 39-42°C, four months eariler, it snowed
I am satisfied with +7 difference. But +13 might be even better
Yes.
Completely normal. Even in the same city. We are in a village near Rijeka and it was around 3 degrees with bura, we went to the sea and it felt like it was 15-17. You could wear shorts at the seaside.
We have a 3 different climate zone in smallest area.
yes its usuall
Dinaric alps are blocking climate from the sea reaching inwards into the land. Its a huge mountain range
