Fair skies as temperature jump recedes

A recent jump in temperature is expected to recede over the next few days, with maximum highs falling back to 37 around the capital, low 30’s elsewhere and a chance of rain later in the week.

Wednesday skies will be mostly clear with weak to moderate winds turning into strong winds in the late afternoon. The sea will be clam to relatively calm while choppy waters are expected later at windfall.

Maximum high temperatures are expected to reach 37° Celsius inland, 31 out west, around 33 in all other coastal areas and 29 up on the mountains.

Evening skies will be mostly clear with periods of increasing low cloud formations over local areas.

Minimum low temperatures will register 20° inland, around 21 in the coastal regions, while it will be 16 degrees up on the mountains at the highest elevation.

Thursday weather is expected to be clear but with periods of low clouds in some parts of the island, mainly out west.

After noon, Thursday clouds could move in with a chance of rain showers and isolated thunderstorms near the foothills, on the mountains, but also inland.

Friday and Saturday will be mostly clear in the early part of the day while clouds will set in just after noon or throughout the early afternoon, with a chance of rain showers and isolated thunderstorms near over the mountains and inland.

As overall temperatures take a slight dip, they are expected to remain just below the normal seasonal averages for this time of the year.
