ARCHIVED - At least two more weeks of rain and little sunshine: Murcia weather forecast March 21-27
Experts predict showers and storms at least for the whole of this week, and perhaps beyond, and haven’t ruled out more Saharan dust

When it rains, it pours. And pour it will, with widespread rain accompanied by storms starting off the week, and scattered showers forecast for the rest of the week in the Region of Murcia, according to predictions by Spain’s State Meteorological Agency (Aemet).
After Storm Celia made its presence felt in the most dramatic of ways last week, a new Atlantic squall is blowing into Murcia from the southwest of Spain, bringing with it overcast skies for the rest of the week.
However, temperatures in the Region will either stay the same or even go up a bit today, Monday March 21. Winds from the east, which will be felt more intensely in the Campo de Cartagena, may brighten up the afternoon.
Specifically, for today, temperatures of 12ºC minimum and 19ºC are expected in Cartagena; 8ºC minimum and 14ºC maximum in Caravaca de la Cruz; 9ºC minimum and 17ºC maximum in Lorca; 8ºC minimum and 13ºC maximum in Yecla; and 12ºC minimum and 18ºC maximum in Murcia city.
We can expect the same sort of temperatures for the entire week, with little variation expected to thermometers between now and Sunday March 27.
This rain is set to continue for several days, at least until Sunday, although Aemet hasn’t ruled out the possibility of it lasting even longer. In fact, it’s likely that Murcia will face two weeks of rain, with strong winds and little sunshine.
The rains are not expected to be heavy and persistent, but occasional and scattered, which leaves little room for making outdoor plans in advance.
Has the Saharan Dust ‘calima’ episode totally finished?
Last week, the sky turned orange in the Region of Murcia and much of the rest of Spain due to the arrival of the Saharan dust which, combined with the rain, made for a very messy and bizarre sort of week weatherwise, the likes of which haven’t been seen in the Region for decades.
That’s all over now, though, with Aemet pointing out that it was a “very exceptional episode”.
“Since records began, it has never happened like this in Murcia,” said Luis Bañón, meteorologist and spokesman for Aemet.
While this “very extreme” episode of haze and dust has now ended, Saharan dust and muddy rain do occur about ten or fifteen times a year in Murcia, most frequently at this time of year, so we may see a repeat of the orange dust in the near future, but nowhere near as intense as what we had last week.
