Levanat
An easterly or levanat is the name given to a bora that blows at more or less constant force usually nearer to the east and during rain and cold. Easterlies of this kind, which are something between a bora and sirocco, are more frequent in the North Adriatic.

Tramontana
The tramontana is a mild type of bora. It usually blows from the north. Its force is weaker than the bora. It is less unpredictable, and the relief of the coastline affects its course. It is most frequent in the South Adriatic.
