Detailed forecast for the coming days:
A seasonal low-pressure system is affecting the region, and unstable conditions are expected starting Friday.
Tonight, the weather will be mostly clear, but locally there will be increased low-level cloud cover, mainly along the western coast. Later on and during the early morning hours, it is possible that patchy fog or low clouds may form locally, particularly in southeastern areas. Winds will initially be westerly to northwesterly, light to moderate, 3 to 4 Beaufort, gradually weakening to light, downslope winds of 3 Beaufort. The sea will gradually become calm to slightly rough. Temperatures will drop to around 24 degrees inland, around 23 degrees along the coast, and around 20 degrees in the higher mountainous areas.
Tomorrow, the weather will remain mostly clear, although there will be locally increased cloud cover in the morning along the western coast and in the afternoon in the mountains. Winds will initially be variable and light, at 3 Beaufort, before gradually shifting to mainly southwesterly to northwesterly, light to moderate, 3 to 4 Beaufort, and in the afternoon, temporarily reaching strong winds—4 to 5 Beaufort—on the windward coasts. The sea will be slightly rough. Temperatures will reach around 40 degrees inland, around 31 on the western coast, around 34 on the rest of the coast, and around 30 degrees in the higher mountainous areas.
Tomorrow night, the weather will be mostly clear, though locally increased low cloud cover will develop along the coast. Later on and during the early morning hours, patchy fog or mist may form locally, particularly in eastern and southeastern areas. Winds will gradually become mainly downslope, light, at 3 Beaufort, and the sea will be calm to slightly rough.
On Thursday, the weather will be mostly clear, though locally increased cloud cover is expected to bring isolated showers in the afternoon in the mountains.
On Friday and Saturday, clouds will build up, and from noon onward, scattered showers and possibly isolated thunderstorms are expected, mainly in the mountains and inland areas.
Temperatures will remain roughly the same on Thursday but will drop by Saturday, settling near average seasonal levels.
