Minimum temperatures will drop slightly, while daytime highs remain relatively stable. Winds will be light and variable, though it will become breezy in the afternoon.

Yellow weather alerts have been issued by Aemet for storms and heavy rainfall, affecting both the northern and southern coasts as well as inland areas of Alicante.

Thankfully, all weather alerts have been lifted.
