Serbia has a continental climate and a hot July and August. Belgrade's average daily maximum is 29 C in July and 30 C in August, and the south and east run warmer still: Niš averages 32 C in August and Negotin 31 C. A van without air conditioning is unpleasant on those afternoons, and the rivers and the shade are where everybody else already is.

Belgrade, Novi Sad, Zlatibor and Negotin are Republic Hydrometeorological Service normals for 1991 to 2020. The Niš row is a 2010 to 2024 average instead, because that is the only published series for the station, and it reads warmer than the others partly for that reason.
