Weather report

This very summery weather will continue into next week. Although a so-called high-pressure ridge is in effect at higher altitudes, some unstable air will reach us from the southwest at the start of the week. Despite passing veil clouds, pleasant weather conditions will often prevail. It is only as the day progresses that cumulus clouds will increase, which may lead to brief showers and thunderstorms. Muggy, unstable air masses from the western Mediterranean, combined with a weakening high-pressure system, will continue to bring unpredictable weather conditions. With this type of air mass, a detailed forecast in terms of both location and timing isn’t particularly useful, since conditions can unexpectedly flare up at any time and in any place. Surprises—both positive and negative—are simply part of this weather pattern. The dry and pleasant spells should be used for outdoor activities. In the second half of the week, temperatures are expected to trend slightly downward.
