A restless surge of cold air is rolling in, stirring the atmosphere and refusing to stay quiet.
Today unfolds beneath a thick blanket of cloud, with scattered rain and the occasional rumble of thunder breaking the stillness. As the afternoon wanes, the drama retreats northward and uphill, clinging mostly to the mountains and northern regions. The wind has a sharp edge to it, blowing from the southwest, then swinging northwest, gathering strength as the day goes on. At times it will howl rather than whisper, strong enough to be felt in your bones. Out at sea, the water mirrors the mood: unsettled, rough, and in places downright hostile, especially along the western and northern shores. Temperatures struggle to climb, hovering around 15°C inland and along exposed coasts, a slightly milder 17°C elsewhere, while the mountains remain locked in a much colder grip, near 6°C.
Night brings a brief exhale. Skies clear at first, offering a short-lived calm. But before dawn, clouds begin to regroup, sneaking back in along the western coasts with a chance of light, isolated rain. The winds slowly lose their fury, turning westerly and easing as the hours pass, though they won’t fall completely silent. The sea follows suit, still restless in the west and north, but gradually settling elsewhere.
Looking ahead to Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, the atmosphere remains unsettled and watchful. Clouds will drift in and out, rain appearing in pockets, and isolated thunderstorms may flare up without much warning; some possibly carrying hail. High in the mountains, winter refuses to let go, with snowfall returning to the peaks. Temperatures edge upward toward Sunday before slipping slightly on Monday, staying close to what the season expects, but never quite letting you forget who’s in control.
