Dubrovnik Weather Causing Problems for the Film Crew

Dubrovnik weather in March and February is notoriously unpredictable. We’ve already warned about possibilities of heavy rains and freak thunderstorms, but one of the most frequent weather related problems in the area are those caused by heavy winds.

As reported by Zagreb.info this is one lesson the production crew of Star Wars Episode VIII working in Dubrovnik learnt this morning. It seems the filming or scene rehearsals on board a ship in Dubrovnik’s Old City Harbour had to be postponed because of heavy northern wind called Bura. The ship was able to sail out with a serious delay, but at least we’ve got to see another shot of the actors on board in what seems to be some sort of a formal event scene.

If you think Dubrovnik is bad, at least we’re not seeing winds as strong as they are currently experiencing on the northern part of Croatian coast. Seen here in a clip that’s going viral in Croatia this morning, YouTube user Aleksandar Gospic posted a video made on Pag Island Bridge, showing how strong Bura can get.
