Listen to the story
Spain's national weather agency, AEMET, has released its forecast for Alicante on Saturday, November 7. The agency says the city will enjoy a dry day with no rain.
According to AEMET, conditions will change slightly on Sunday. The forecast predicts more cloud cover across the region, though no rain is mentioned for that day either.
The agency has also confirmed similar weather for the nearby city of Elche. Both Alicante and Elche are expected to have a dry Saturday before conditions shift on Sunday.
These short-term forecasts are common in Spanish news during autumn, when weather can change quickly from one day to the next. AEMET regularly updates its predictions to help residents and visitors plan their activities.
For people living in or visiting Alicante this weekend, Saturday appears to be the better day for outdoor plans. Sunday's increased cloudiness suggests a change in the atmospheric conditions, even if rain is not specifically forecast.
