Weekend weather alert for the Algarve and lower Alentejo

rainstormHeavy rain is forecast for Saturday in the Algarve along with more thunder and lightning. This will continue throughout Sunday, easing off early on Monday morning.

The southeast wind will gust up to 75kmph along the coast from Saturday with bursts up to 90kmph on higher ground.

Flash flooding is expected in the usual places, especially in coastal areas during the weekend’s high tides. Armação de Pêra and Albufeira suffered during the week with Carvoeiro’s restaurant hill and main square turning into a river.

Drivers are advised to avoid wooded area as falling trees and branches will present a threat and anyone contemplating a seaside walk or a spot of fishing is advised to not be so foolish.

There is the threat of outbursts of extreme wind and the distinct possibility of small yet damaging tornados.

The generally foul weekend weather is due to a depression coming in from the west reaching its peak on Saturday, although its effects will last until Sunday across the lower Alentejo and Algarve.

On the plus side, the temperatures will remain mild for the time of year, as they are now, between 15ºC and 19ºC in the Algarve.
