Mixed weather ahead for the weekend: sunshine, wind & clouds

Mixed weather ahead for the weekend: sunshine, wind & clouds
Apr 6 2023 Share

It’s as if the weather doesn’t seem ready to commit to a single pattern for this upcoming weekend. 

As we try to bring you the forecast for this weekend, so you can make your plans and get ready to blow off some built up work steam, we’ll be first greeted with mainly cloudy weather on Friday.

The temperatures are set to feel like 17 degrees Celsius, with lows of 10 degrees. The cloudy cover will somewhat unravel on Saturday, but we’ll still have the same temperature levels. 

The sun will be ready to fully emerge in it’s almost full brightness on Sunday 9th April, with temperatures feeling like 18 degrees celsius – a little nudge from the previous 17. 

So we’ll have pockets of sunlight and clear skies to enjoy our weekend before Monday comes along with a windy forecast to introduce us to the work week once again.

‘Gonna crawl into a cave now (edit room) and put it all together’ he said. ‘That’s a wrap.’ The two images released by the director weren’t the only sneak peeks we got from the film. 

Other leaked images show Phoenix and Gaga prancing around on the iconic Joker stairs which became a cultural phenomenon after the first film’s release.

Choreographed by dance star and renowned artist Cheryl Lofreda in her iconic open movement style, the video was shot in a stunning Monte Kristo Hall by Unconventional Office creator Neo Borg Bonaci. 

The dancers took on the artist’s popular track and brought it to life with the dance we got so accustomed to when watching them on the big stage. 

Speaking to MaltaDaily, Cheryl said: 

“The intention behind the movement was very simple. The sentence I felt connected to most was :”Le problème, c’est la routine” – “The problem is the routine” 

“I feel that, although to a certain point it is healthy to have one, it is also important to not get stuck in it and find time to balance and do also things you love and that give you life.”
