The weather is improving, but it will not be completely clear yet in the next few days

BarcelonaThe passage of storm Charles through our region has left westerly winds this Thursday in many districts, with a maximum gust of up to 90 km/h at Puig Sesolles (1,666 m) and more than 70 km/h in areas like Ponent and the Barcelona pre-coastal region. All this followed the round of general rainfall that, during the night, left between 10 and 30 l/m² in many districts, but with higher records on the coast and pre-coast of Barcelona, in districts of Lleida and, above all, on the southern face of the Pyrenees and the Pre-Pyrenees, where more than 50 l/m² were exceeded. The instability will decrease this Friday, with more calm, but the weather will not completely clear up in the coming days and we will have a bit of everything, with temperatures that will not be as warm or mild as in the last few days.

Friday: calmer

The weather will be calmer on Friday. The sun will dominate in most regions, and the westerly wind will decrease and will only affect some points of the southern half of the country. Wind between the north wind (tramuntana) and the mistral will also blow in the north of Alt Empordà and in Roussillon.

Despite this improvement, there will be nuances. In the morning there will be many clouds and some light rain in the Lleida Pyrenees, and in the afternoon clouds will grow in the northeast that will leave some local and scattered showers, especially between the Ripollès and the Costa Brava. Not much, all in all. In addition, the rough sea conditions will persist.

Regarding temperatures, they will drop both by day and by night. Early in the morning the cool weather will be more pronounced, and in the middle of the day it will remain mild, but with more restrained maximums that will no longer exceed 25 ºC as has happened until Thursday.

Changing weekend

In the coming days, we will continue with the dynamic of worn-out Atlantic fronts. Therefore, throughout the weekend, the sky will remain changeable, with a bit of everything, but very little rain in sight. On Saturday, there will be more intervals of clouds and some weak and scattered showers will escape. On Sunday, the most likely showers are expected from the afternoon onwards in the west of the country, with a strengthening of the south wind on the coast. All this with temperatures that will drop a little more, but without any significant cooling in sight.
