When there's Bora and it's raining hard, it's terrible to be on the street. This October the wind broke my umbrella and I arrived home all wet. In years I have seen the Bora lift children from the ground... Be careful Rahel, they are not much smaller than you...🤣🤣🤣

Fair enough! You can see me struggle in a clip here but I forgot to film the miserable state my clothes and shoes were in...

Loved the animation of the roman soldiers🤣

[@RahelsLog]

It was risky but I had to do it 😂

Una volta la bora soffiava spesso con maggior forza rispetto ad oggi a causa del secolare disboscamento selvaggio del Carso(l'altipiano alle spalle della città di Trieste) per usi domestici e navali. Nel 1700, a cura dell'Austria, fu messo un freno al disboscamento e nel 1800 si iniziò a rimboschire, usando all'inizio i pini neri, alberi alti e robusti, capaci di frenare un po' il vento e di permettere ad altri alberi di crescere.

Ohhhhh grazie mille per la spiegazione! Non ne avevo idea e spero l'informazione sia utile anche ad altri che vogliono saperne di più sulla storia locale. (Peccato non sia riuscita a far riprese in Carso...)

Non credo, a Trieste non fanno l'amore con le capre

You should have looked in a Slavic dictionary, maybe there would be a better explanation for some words.

I did in fact check before making this video, however, the origins of the Italian word 'bora' and all Slavic forms for the same wind do not coincide (as far as I could tell based on the data I found). Even though they sound very similar, it seems like Slavic forms such as 'burja' are derived from the word for 'storm'. This doesn't match with the Italian etymology. If you have any free and reliable sources to reference, I'd love to check them out!
