This week in Malta started with a significant amount of rain and a thunderstorm warning persisting all throughout the morning. It seems like the rest of the week is set to have more of the same, including some colder temperatures making their way to the islands.

The chances of rain are set to go on up till the end of the week, with precipitation percentages peaking at 80 and 90% over the next three days. While it’s all set to calm down by Friday, chances of thunderstorms are set to be high over today and tomorrow, with Thursday being the day it all calms down a tad.

Temperatures are set to also get a little fresher over the week, with highs that don’t feel like higher than 25°C all throughout the next three days. Lows will also feel less than 20°C, hitting 19°C right up till Wednesday.

Thursday is when the weather will improve slightly, with the rain giving way to some partly cloudy moments and the temperature going back up again, feeling like 28°C just before the weekend. Some forecasts have Thursday penned for a little bit of rain, but most agree that Friday is when the sun will be making its grand comeback.

So here’s the TL;DR version:

More rain and thunderstorms should be hitting the Maltese islands over the next three days, but things will come to a calm end by Thursday and Friday.

Lovers of rain; this is your time to shine. As for everyone else; we’re sorry.

Tag someone who loves rain and thunder!
