A Cloudy Weekend Ahead Before A Rainy Week

Apr 4 2025

Any plans for the weekend? You might be set for these two days as the weather, despite being partly and mainly cloudy, won’t be bringing any rain or heavy winds.

Well, at least that’s what the current forecasts show.

For once, the rain showers are being forecasted for the start of the week on Monday 7th April, along with some pretty strong wind gusts.

Temperatures are set to feel like 19 degrees Celsius all throughout the weekend, so it will give you a summer-ish feeling as we move closer into the scorching sun days.

And we know some of you are already hitting the beaches!
