A bright but breezy few days ahead: Alicante weather forecast January 8-11

Sunshine and mild daytime temperatures are expected across Alicante, but strong winds inland and in the north could make it feel chilly at times

The rain is gone at last, and the sun is out, although it will still be a bit chilly. Alicante is in for a brighter few days, with plenty of sunny spells and mostly dry weather, even if breezy conditions return at times, especially inland and in the north.

Thursday January 8

Thursday gets things off to a bright start, with mostly clear skies across Alicante. Temperatures will rise during the day, and the increase in daytime highs will be more noticeable in the north. Westerly winds will be moderate and may be felt more in exposed areas, but overall it should feel pleasant in the sunshine.

Friday January 9

Clouds will come and go on Friday, but it should stay dry for most areas. Night-time temperatures continue to climb, while daytime highs are expected to stay much the same. North-westerly winds will pick up, with strong gusts possible inland and in coastal areas, which could make it feel cooler than the thermometer suggests.

Saturday January 10

Saturday brings a similar picture, with dry weather and some cloud. Temperatures dip slightly, particularly during the day. Westerly winds remain a feature, and very strong gusts are possible in the far north of the province, especially in higher and more exposed spots.

Sunday January 11

The weekend wraps up on a calmer note. There will still be some cloudy spells around, but sunshine should break through at times. Temperatures edge up a little during the day, while winds ease to light or moderate levels, making for a mild and settled end to the week at last!

All in all, with the rain finally gone, the weather couldn’t be better for January. Bright days and fresh air make it perfect for getting out for a long walk, especially after all the eating, drinking and late nights over Christmas.
