August 15 with thunderstorms, rain and possible hail
The bank holiday Saturday, August 15th, will bring more unstable weather. Locally heavy rainfall and isolated thunderstorms are possible from midday to early afternoon, primarily in the mountains, inland, and in the east. Hail cannot be ruled out during these storms.
The change in weather is due to a seasonal low pressure and an unstable air mass. Despite increased cloud cover, it will still be warm, with temperatures rising to around 37°C inland, 32°C on the coast, and 26°C in the highest parts of the mountains.

Storms mainly in the mountains, center and east
During the day, there will be periods of locally heavier cloud cover. From the afternoon hours, developing clouds are expected to bring localized showers and isolated thunderstorms.
The highest probability of these phenomena concerns mountainous areas, the central part of the island and the eastern regions.
Hail is also possible during storms. On the coast, winds can occasionally reach force up to 5 on the Beaufort scale.
Maximum 37°C
The temperature will be lower today than during the last days of the greatest heat.
Thermometers should show approximately:
- 37°C inland
- 32°C on the coast
- 26°C in the highest parts of the mountains
Light fog may also appear locally in the morning.
Similar weather also in the next few days
The unstable weather will not end with Saturday.
On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, there will be periods of increased cloudiness again, and local rainfall and isolated thunderstorms are possible in the afternoon and early afternoon.
The mountains, interior of the island, and the east will also be most at risk. Hail will still be possible during storms.
It will be even colder on Sunday
On Sunday, temperatures are expected to drop slightly and be slightly below average climatic values for this period.
No major temperature changes are expected on Monday and Tuesday.
