The next few days will finally bring a stop to the seemingly endless parade of storms that have hit Spain over the past few weeks. By noon on Monday March 24, the latest squall, storm Martinho, will die off along the French coast and will likely be the last high-impact storm to directly affect us for the next week or so.

As a result, we can all look forward to the last week in March being much sunnier with temperatures climbing as we head into the weekend.

 

The weather will gradually start settling down on Monday, although the tail end of storm Martinho will keep the skies mostly cloudy, with some persistent rain expected in northern Spain.

 

Daytime temperatures will begin to creep up slowly: Murcia and Alicante will share the title of the warmest places in mainland Spain on Monday, with the thermometers reaching 20ºC.

 

The stabilising trend will continue across the country on Tuesday, with partly cloudy skies forecast in the southern half of Spain and overcast conditions in the north. There will be a blip along the Mediterranean coast though, as stormy intervals are expected in the afternoon. Likewise, the southeast can anticipate very dark skies and occasional thunderstorms from around 1pm onwards.

 

Temperatures will remain relatively unchanged.

 

By Wednesday things will have really settled down and while the day will start off rather cloudy, this should clear early enough to give way to bright skies.

 

Daytime temperatures will rise in the far-south, hitting 22ºC in Sevilla and Murcia with few changes expected elsewhere.

 

 

With the exception of some light showers in the extreme north, Thursday should be dry and bright in Spain with partially cloudy skies. In the south, the mercury could increase by another degree or two, but in general, temperatures will remain mostly the same.
