Bura je hladan i suh vjetar, obiËno poËinje priliËno naglo, a jenjava neπto polakπe. Ni jedan vjetar koji puπe u naπoj zemlji nije imao takav utjecaj na okoliπ i ljude kao bura. No taj opasan vjetar ima i pozitivnih osobina. Kad puπe, biometeoroloπke prilike obiËno su povoljne za razliku od juga, te je stanovnici priobalja zbog toga vole. Bez bure ne bi bilo ni poznatog prπuta ili paπkog sira. U kombinaciji s aromatiËnim travama tamoπnjoj janjetini daje nezamjenjiv okus. The Bora is a cold and dry wind. Usually, it appears abruptly and dies away slowly. No other wind has had such an influence on the environment and people in Croatia. This dangerous wind has its good sides. When it blows, biometeorologic conditions are usually favourable, and the inhabitants love it for this. Without the Bora there would be no famous prosciutto or cheese from the island of Pag. Combined with aromatic herbs, it gives the local lamb its fabulous taste. CROATIA AIRLINES
