Traffic in the area is restricted
Three avalanches fell on the Petrohan Pass today. At a briefing, RIA announced that traffic at noon remains limited.

The first snow mass fell during the night and with the help of a rotary snow blower at 8 o’clock this morning the road was open for traffic. The second avalanche fell about a kilometer below the ridge.

Wet snow continues to fall throughout Northwestern Bulgaria. Morning temperatures ranged from -4 to +2 degrees. In some places in the mountains the snow cover reaches one meter.
