An unseasonable shower of dusty is possible overnight. A low pressure system over the Atlas Mountains in Algeria will migrate northeastwards towards Sardinia. This will pick up moisture as it traverses the Mediterranean. In turn, a number of isolated showers will develop within the system. At least one of these might affect the Maltese Islands overnight. The same system has generated a strong wind from the Southeast across our region. This has blown fine desert sand from the Sahara Desert towards the central Mediterranean. As a result, any rain will deposit this sand. Total rainfall will be very low.

Xi ħalba xita tal-ħamrija barr minn l-istaġun hija possibli matul il-lejl. Sistema ta’ pressjoni baxxa fuq il-muntanji Atlas ġewwa l-Alġerija se timxi ‘l fuq lejn Sardenja. Din se takkumula ammont ta’ ilma minn fuq il-Mediterran. Dan se jwassal biex jiżviluppaw numru ta’ ħalbiet iżolati tax-xita. Minn ta’ l-anqas waħda minn dawn tista taffetwa lill-Gżejjer Maltin billejl. L-istess sistema wasslet biex riħ qawwi mix-Xlokk ħakimna. Dan ġab miegħu ammont ta’ trab fin minn fuq id-deżert lejn iċ-ċentru tal-Mediterran. Riżultat ta’ dan, ix-xita li mistennija billejl tkun tal-ħamrija. It-total ta’ xita se jkun wieħed baxx.
