The meteorological situation for Carnival across the central Mediterranean is expected to be largely stable. The Maltese Islands will spend much of Carnival sandwiched in between high pressure over the western Mediterranean and low pressure over the eastern Mediterranean. The high pressure over the western Mediterranean will prevent storms of Atlantic origin from making their way to the central Mediterranean. This means mainly dry conditions for Carnival. The sky will be mainly sunny or partly cloudy on most days as well. The only downside is the wind. Being caught in between two different pressure systems, the wind will be fairly strong throughout much of Carnival. Temperatures will be warmer than of late, with highs set to rise above 16 C. Nights will not be as cold either, with lows expected to remain above 10 C on all nights. Having said this, real-feels will be pushed lower as a result of strong winds.

Taking a look at the weather across the Maltese Islands over Carnival, the average maximum temperature will be around 18°C, with a high of 20°C expected on the final day of Carnival. The average minimum temperature will be 11°C, dipping to its lowest of 10°C on Friday and Sunday. No precipitation is anticipated. Since air will be rushing from high pressure over the western Mediterranean to low pressure over the eastern Mediterranean, the wind will be mainly from the West. It will be at its strongest from late on Friday till late on Saturday, when it can reach Force 6/7 at times.

Is-sitwazzjoni metejoroloġika għal-Karnival madwar iċ-ċentru tal-Mediterran mistennija tkun għal-biċċa l-kbira tal-ħin stabbli. Il-Gżejjer Maltin se jqattgħu parti kbira mill-Karnival maqbudin bejn pressjoni għolja fuq il-punent tal-Mediterran u pressjoni baxxa fuq il-lvant tal-Mediterran. Il-pressjoni għolja fuq il-punent tal-Mediterran se twassal biex sistemi ta’ maltemp minn fuq l-Atlantiku jkunu miżmuma minn li jilħquna. Dan ifisser temp bla xita għal-parti l-kbira tal-Karnival. Is-sema se jkun il-biċċa l-kbira xemxi jew ftit imsaħħab f’ħafna mill-ġranet. L-unika żvantaġġ se jkun ir-riħ. Peress li se nkunu maqbudin bejn żewġ sistemi differenti ta’ pressjoni atmosferika, ir-riħ mistenni jkun kemmxejn qawwi f’ħafna mill-jiem. It-temperaturi se jkunu aktar sħan minn dan l-aħħar, bl-ogħla mistenni tilħaq 16 C. L-ijieli mhux se jkunu daqstant kesħin l-anqas, bl-anqas tkun ta’ aktar minn 10°C fl-iljieli kollha. Minkejja dan, it-temperaturi se jkunu jinħassu daqsxejn friski minħabba r-riħ qawwi.

Jekk nagħtu ħarsa lejn it-temp madwar il-Gżejjer Maltin għall-Karnival, ninnutaw kif it-temperatura massima medja se tkun ta’ madwar 18°C, bl-aktar ta’ 20°C mistennija fl-aħħar jum tal-Karnival. It-temperatura minima medja sejra tkun ta’ 11°C, bl-anqas tinżel għal-10°C nhar il-Ġimgħa u l-Ħadd. Mhux qed nistennew xita. Minħabba il-fatt li l-arja se tkun tonfoħ minn arja bi pressjoni għolja fuq il-punent tal-Mediterran lejn arja bi pressjoni baxxa fuq il-lvant tal-Mediterran, ir-riħ se jkun mill-Punent. Dan se jkun l-aktar qawwi minn tard il-Ġimgħa sa tard is-Sibt, meta dan ser jilħaq Forza 6/7 kultant.
