Afternoon showers in the north on a new day of spring mildness

BarcelonaWe leave behind a weekend of very different weather, with a rainy Saturday afternoon in many places and a sunny Sunday, at least during the first half of the day. During the afternoon, cloud cover will increase progressively and from sunset onwards, showers will fall in the western half and in other nearby regions, without reaching the eastern half of the country. All this on the eve of a week that will begin gently, but which will take us back a few weeks in terms of temperature.

Monday: showers in the Pyrenees

The week will begin with a very placid weather situation, still marked by the dominance of the sun practically everywhere and with temperatures that will rise a little more. Tomorrow with some unimportant bands of high and medium clouds and in the afternoon with cloudiness in the Pyrenees and some showers in this sector of the country and also in the northeast. All together, however, very little. The maximums will be around 25 °C to 26 °C in many places, with an atmosphere typical of early May.

Tuesday: thermal descent begins

Cold air will gain ground in Europe from Tuesday onwards and will also make the atmosphere a little cooler in our home, especially in the eastern half. A day of contrasts with a morning dominated by the sun and an afternoon with many clouds and rainfall in many regions, practically anywhere. In fact, some storms or hail are not ruled out, with snow at high altitudes in the Pyrenean mountain range.

Cooler from mid-week

The polar air mass that will cross the continent will leave us with a more noticeable temperature drop from Thursday until the weekend, when the atmosphere will be more typical of March or early April than mid-May. After an extraordinarily warm April, it seems that May wants to compensate, with no major heatwave in sight and mercury below the climatic average.
