A local weather service provider is irresponsibly spreading false news that thunderstorms are expected across the Maltese Islands by the end of June and the beginning of July. This is all fake news.

What are we to expect? The grip of high pressure will prevail over the central Mediterranean. This will be enough to ensure that fine weather continues to grace the skies over the Maltese Islands. Heatwave conditions will persist till Monday 24/06, with temperatures at or above 34 C on all days. Temperatures will decrease slightly, albeit still staying above average, from Tuesday 25/06 onward. Highs will be at around 32 C, while lows will dip to around 23 C. Winds will remain mainly light and variable, with only rare brief spells of strong winds if at all. Sunny or mainly sunny skies will characterise most of our days, with only rare brief spells of cloudy days if at all. Latest maps show absolutely no rain in the near future. Festas and other local events can go ahead as planned.

 

Xi bassar tat-temp lokali qed iferrex aħbar falza b’mod irrisponsabbli. Qed jgħidu li għandna nistennew maltempati bir-ragħad fil-Gżejjer Maltin sa l-aħħar ta’ Ġunju u l-bidu ta’ Lulju. Dan huma kollha aħbarijiet foloz.

X’għandna nistennew allura? Il-morsa ta’ pressjoni għolja fuq iċ-ċentru tal-Mediterran se tkun qed tkompli. Dan se jkun biżejjed biex temp sabiħ ikompli jsaħħar is-sema ta’ madwar il-Gżejjer Maltin. Il-mewġa ta’ sħana kurrenti se tippersisti sa nhar it-Tnejn 24/06, b’temperaturi ta’ 34 C jew aktar. It-temperaturi se jonqsu daqsxejn, għalkemm xorta waħda se jibqgħu aktar mill-medja, mit-Tlieta 25/06 ‘il quddiem. L-ogħla se tkun fir-reġjun ta’ 32 C, filwaqt li l-anqas sejra tinżel għal madwar 23 C. Ir-riħ se jkun il-biċċa l-kbira ħafif u varjabbli, u jekk ikollna, xi waqtiet qosra u rari ta’ riħ qawwi. Ħafna mill-jiem se jkunu kkaratteriżżati minn sema xemxi jew il-biċċa l-kbira xemxi, u jekk ikollna, xi waqtiet qosra u rari ta’ sema msaħħab. Il-mapep ma juru l-ebda xita għal futur qarib. Festi u avvenimenti oħra lokali jistgħu jsiru kif pjanat.
