The presence of a powerful anticyclonic ridge It will favor slightly cloudy skies, although the nights and early morning hours will be cooler, with great thermal contrasts in the interior of the peninsula.
However, this summer His days are numbered. Starting Saturdaymeteorological models point to a time changewith general drop in temperatures, rain, storms and the possibility of snowfall in the main mountain ranges. However, the intensity of the episode and the extent of the instability still generate uncertainty.
AEMET weather forecast for this Tuesday
This Tuesday the stable weather will continue in much of the country, although some are expected weak rainfall in the Cantabrian Sea, the eastern peninsula, the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands.

Wednesday and Thursday will continue to be marked by the anticyclone
Stability will continue Wednesday in most of the peninsula and the Balearic Islands, according to AEMETalthough the movement of the anticyclone towards Europe will favor the entry of humid air. The skies are cloudy on the southeastern and Alboran coasts, where “generally weak precipitation” is expected.

Weather change that could bring intense cold on Sunday
Weather models still offer different scenarios for the weekend. Some point to a significant drop in temperatures accompanied by greater instability, while others foresee a less pronounced cooling and with less rain. Despite these differences, the forecasts show a change in atmospheric dynamics during the second half of Octobere, after a September marked by heat and summer temperatures.
Meteored points out that, between Friday and Saturday, a powerful anticyclone It will be positioned between the British Isles and Scandinavia, with a tendency to turn from west to east. From that position, I would favor the cold air inlet coming from high latitudes. Although this air mass would not directly affect Spain, it could cause a notable drop in thermometers during the weekend.
The decline would be especially noticeable Sunday in much of the interior of the peninsula. According to Meteored forecasts, Ávila and Teruel could record minimums of between 0 and 2 ºCwhile Burgos, Cuenca, León, Salamanca, Segovia or Soria they would stay close to the 3ºC. The maximums would also be low for the time in some capitals: they would be around 12 ºC in Ávila, Burgos, León and Soria.
