Weather outlook on Thursday January 4
A cold snap is expected to hit much of Spain as we approach the weekend but while the weather will go through some changes in the Region of Murcia, the temperatures will remain sky-high, tipping 22 and 23ºC in parts.
However, an approaching front will result in plenty of cloudy skies and some scattered rain is forecast later in the week.

Tuesday will be mostly cloudy with overcast intervals and morning mists anticipated on the coast, where it could also be foggy early on. Nighttime temperatures will experience a drop, which will be accompanied by isolated weak frosts inland.
On the other hand, daytime temperatures will begin to climb throughout the Region, with the exception of the coast, where the thermometers will remain unchanged. The winds will be weak and from the west, with moderate intervals during the afternoon.
