Local winds
- Bora: falls in gusts from the mountains of the eastern shore and often sets in suddenly; gusts are often twice the mean wind and stronger than the models show, fiercest close inshore near Trieste and in the Kvarner; on the Italian coast it builds high seas across the Adriatic
- Jugo (Adriatic Scirocco): humid and hazy, slowly builds high, long seas along the whole length of the Adriatic and pushes water into the northern Adriatic (flooding in Venice); often rain and poor visibility
- Scirocco: warm south-easterly from the Sahara, humid and hazy over the sea, often with dust and poor visibility; high seas on south- and east-facing coasts
