Weather Outlook for the Coming Days
After yesterday’s Status Orange warnings, today is expected to see a gradual shift from showers to more stable conditions. While there will be scattered outbreaks of rain in the evening, the overall trend suggests a slight improvement in weather patterns.
This morning will mostly remain dry, with a fair amount of cloud cover and some bright or sunny spells. However, isolated showers are likely to occur. As the day progresses, more frequent showers will spread from the west, particularly during the morning and early afternoon. These showers may become heavy at times, especially in the southern regions, where they will persist into the evening. Elsewhere, the rain will become more isolated. The highest temperatures today are expected to range between 15°C and 19°C.
Tonight, the showers will continue but gradually become less frequent. Dry conditions and clear spells are anticipated to develop across most areas.
Wednesday: A Drier Day
Wednesday is set to bring drier conditions that will break up the ongoing showery weather. The day will start largely cloudy, with some showers mainly affecting the northwest. Sunny spells will begin to appear throughout the day, increasing as the showers clear. This will leave most areas with a dry evening. The highest temperatures on Wednesday are expected to range between 16°C and 20°C.
The evening will see clearer conditions, with clouds beginning to build from the west and moving into the early morning hours.
Thursday: Cloudy Spells and Rain
Thursday will start with mostly dry conditions, although there will be cloudy spells and occasional light rain and drizzle. Afternoon hours may bring some brighter and sunnier spells. However, as the evening approaches, outbreaks of rain and drizzle are expected to develop near Atlantic coasts. Temperatures will hover between 17°C and 21°C.
By Thursday evening, there will be plenty of clouds, along with patchy rain and drizzle moving eastwards.
Friday: Scattered Showers and Sunny Spells
Friday will begin with cloudy conditions in the morning, accompanied by well-scattered showers. As the day progresses, the weather will become drier, with sunny spells developing. The highest temperatures on Friday are expected to range between 16°C and 20°C.
Saturday: Sunny Spells and Isolated Showers
Saturday will see sunny spells and scattered showers in the morning. The afternoon is expected to bring better sunshine as the showers become more isolated. The highest temperatures on Saturday are expected to range between 16°C and 20°C.
Sunday: Persistent Rain and Drizzle
Sunday is likely to bring more persistent rain and drizzle, with cloud cover and further spells of rain expected early next week. This marks a return to more unsettled conditions after a brief period of drier weather.
