Aemet says that the current conditions will become more unsettled on Saturday, bringing showers that are likely to be heavy at times. Thunderstorms are possible, as is hail. Persistent rain is most likely in the afternoon. There are no alerts for rain. Snow is likely down to 1,000 metres.

It will be a chilly day. Given the spread of forecast temperatures, it may well be (in general) the coldest day of the winter so far. The good news is that the breezes are expected to be light, with the exception of northern areas. It's still forecast to be quite breezy on Sunday, but the strong breezes that had been forecast are now no more than moderate.

Rain is also forecast for Sunday but the met agency says it won't be as heavy as on Saturday and that there will be more by way of sun. An improvement on Monday.
