Looking only at the district capitals, there are lows predicted close to zero degrees for the beginning of the week.
These last two days, Thursday and Friday, signaled summer. And, especially for those who were on Easter vacation, it was synonymous with going to the beach. Right at the beginning of April.
But no, we are not yet in Summer. And this weekend will remind us that we are still at the beginning of Spring – with practically winter temperatures in several places.
Looking only at the district capitals, there are predicted lows close to zero degrees for the beginning of the week, more specifically domingo e Monday.
Guard will have a minimum temperature of 3 degrees on these two days, predicts the – Instituto Portugues do Mar e Atmosfera.
Bragança will be similar: 3 graus on Sunday, 4 degrees on Monday. Viseu must register a minimum of 4 degrees on both days. Several other cities do not exceed 7 degrees.
More than these values, what stands out is the difference of temperatures between today, Friday, and Sunday.
In just two days, there will be, for example, a 12 degree descent at the minimum temperature, precisely in Viseu, from 16 to 4 degrees.
Most of the most obvious drops will be felt at maximum temperatures: 14 degree descents in Braga (from 30 degrees today to 16 degrees on Sunday) and again in Viseu, from 27 to 13 degrees.
Leiria and Vila Real they will record drops of 13 degrees in just two days: from 28 to 15 in the first case, from 27 to 14 in the second.
Already Bragança (27 to 15 degrees), Guard (23-11) e Porto (26-14) should feel a difference of 12 degrees in two days.
Still looking at the highs, drops of 11 degrees in Coimbra (27 to 16), Santarém (from 28 to 17) and still Viana do Castelo (from 25 to 14 degrees). In Portalegre will drop 10 degrees, from 26 to 16.
Faro is the only district capital that escape to big changes this weekend: the minimum goes from 11 to 10 degrees and the maximum from 21 to 20 degrees.
The sky is also changing. In the center and south, today, Friday, it was already expected rains and moments of thunderstorm – but with clear or slightly cloudy skies in the rest of the country.
On Saturday, rain and thunderstorms will pass to some areas of the North and Center interior. On Sunday there should be less clouds and more sun across the country.
