ENGLISH/INGLIŻ

A wave of instability is likely across the Maltese Islands over the weekend and the first half of next week. Colder air from the north will infiltrate our region, generating low pressure over the central Mediterranean. The first impact will be a strong wind from the Northwest on Saturday 24/10 and Sunday 25/10. The wind, which will veer from the Northwest by morning on Saturday, will increase gradually from early in the day. It will reach Force 5/6 from the early afternoon on Saturday through to early morning on Sunday, before decreasing gradually to become Force 4/5 during the day on Sunday. Whilst a weather warning is not deemed necessary, you’re still advised to avoid coastal areas known to be rough when the blows from the Northwest.

The unstable weather may intensify in the first half of next week with rain, colder temperatures and further strong winds being possible, particularly on Tuesday 27/10 and Wednesday 28/10. More on this as the days progress.

 

MALTI / MALTESE

Mewġa ta’ instabbilita mistennija fuq il-Gżejjer Maltin fi tmiem il-ġimgħa u l-ewwel nofs tal-ġimgħa li ġejja. Arja kiesħa mit-tramuntana se tippenetra r-reġjun tagħna u tiżviluppa pressjoni baxxa madwar iċ-ċentru tal-Mediterran. L-ewwel impatt ta’ dan se jkun riħ qawwi mill-Majjistral nhar is-Sibt 24/10 u l-Ħadd 25/10. Ir-riħ, li se jdur mill-Majjistral minn kmieni s-Sibt, se jżid gradwalment. Ser jilħaq Forza 5/6 minn kmieni wara nofsinhar tas-Sibt sa kmieni filgħodu tal-Ħadd, qabel ma jonqos għal Forza 4/5 matul il-jum tal-Ħadd. Għalkemm jidher li mhux se jkun hemm lok ta’ twissija, xorta navżawkhom biex tkunu prudenti f’inħawi magħrufha li jinħakmu minn Majjistral qawwi.

It-temp instabbli jaf jintensifika fl-ewwel nofs tal-ġimgħa li ġejja b’xita, temperaturi aktar friski u aktar riħ qawwi jkunu possibli, speċjalment nhar it-Tlieta 27/10 u l-Erbgħa 28/10. Aktar dwar dan matul il-jiem li ġejjin.
