Hola de España! I can see snow on the mountains near Granada and it’s pretty cold back home, so the weather models tell me. Shorts weather here in Granada…well…from midday so I’m going to be cold before then!

Again I’m on questionable hotel wi-fi so we’ll see how I get on.

The general picture sees high pressure in control, with a cooler flow for now – staying roughly in the same position for a week or so with some tweaks as weather fronts pass to our north, occasionally bringing some showers/rain.

A pretty chilly start today, but pretty sunny to start too, some bits of cloud around. Generally it becomes cloudier this afternoon though still bright with some hazy sunshine. Feeling pretty cold in the northerly breeze, 10’C at best. Cloud continues to thicken overnight, some patchy light rain possible by dawn – down to around 5’C.

Friday sees a fairly weak weather front crossing, it will be cloudy most of the day, some patchy light rain at times – somewhat more persistent and moderate in the afternoon at times. Around 12’C and breezy. Skies clearing overnight, down to around 2’C, a frost possible in more sheltered spots.

Saturday starts sunny, some cloud will bubble up and showers will develop – some quite heavy, and perhaps some sleet/hail mixed in to any heavier ones in the afternoon. No guarantee of catching any showers, your spot may stay dry. Colder again, 10’C at best and quite windy – gusty in any showers. Clear skies overnight, down to around 1’C – a frost possible.

Sunday starts sunny but cloud will graually thicken with some patchy rain from around mid/late afternoon more likely – perhaps by early afternoon. Again temperatures on the chilly side, around 10’C and quite windy. Patchy rain clearing during the evening, down to around 4’C as skies clear.

Only subtle changes in the pattern for Monday as high pressure slips a bit further away from us, the jetstream to our north having a bit more effect.

A sunny start to Monday but it will generally cloud over – perhaps a light/moderate shower or two also. Around 12’C and breezy. Generally cloudy overnight, a bit of light rain/drizzle around.

High pressure probably nudging back towards us on Tuesday, cloud more likely than sun – but uncertain. Temperatures recovering a bit too, around 14’C…a tad more if sunnier.

Probably fairly similar for Wednesday.

So for the Easter weekend? Highly uncertain still. Dry weather is more likely than wet weather, or at least dry most days with a weak weather front or some showers on 1/2 days. Temperatures could really be anything…something unusually cold or unusually warm is possible, though I’d suggest the range of 12’C to 15’C is more likely.

The first half of April, maybe two-thirds looks generally quite reasonable, often dry, sometimes quite warm. Later in the month there is more of an unsettled signal.

Likewise May, though the signal for an unsettled May has lessened recently.

Enjoy the rest of your week…time for me to get ready for a tour of Granada. Next forecast should be on Sunday morning, assuming nothing goes wrong with my complicated journey home! I’m not sure why I make holidays so complicated.
