The coming week is set to bring a significant change in the weather. Initially, it will remain cold and mostly dry, but by Thursday, it is likely to turn much milder. Temperatures could reach 16°C as a southwesterly flow delivers a taste of early spring-like warmth. However, there is a price to pay, with strong winds and outbreaks of rain posing a risk in all areas, particularly in the north and west. (If you would like to browse the website without adverts and access premium features, see below)
