Wet and windy Easter: Murcia weather forecast March 25-28

The Region of Murcia can expect a wet and wild start to Holy Week, a drastic change considering the thermometers reached a sweltering 26ºC in parts over the weekend. A DANA is expected to arrive from the west early in the week, bringing rain and unsettled weather to most parts over the next few days.

The storm clouds began gathering late on Sunday and with the winds intensifying early on Monday, Aemet has issued a yellow warning for rough seas, with waves expected to reach three metres on the coasts of Cabo de Palos and La Manga.

The day will dawn cloudy and grey, and while rain is expected throughout the community, the Northwest region will bear the brunt, with a sharp drop in temperatures and a snow level of between 1,600 and 1,800 metres. The rain will be accompanied by mist and fog, causing difficult conditions in some areas.

Minimum and maximum temperatures on Monday

Caravaca de la Cruz: 7ºC to 21ºC
