Breezier days ahead! Relief on the horizon as north-westerlies could return to Malta
A cooler time awaits!

Lyndsey Grima

After a long, hot and humid summer, some relief could finally be on the horizon for Malta, with mid-September potentially bringing a return of the north-westerly winds.

According to The Maltese Islands Weather, these winds could make their presence felt around the middle of the month, helping to mix the surrounding seas and bring a noticeable change to the current weather conditions.

The return of the north-westerlies could also lead to lower temperatures, offering a welcome break from the intense heat experienced across the Maltese Islands in recent months.

Perhaps most importantly for many residents, the shift in wind direction could help ease the persistent humidity that has made the summer particularly uncomfortable, with warm and muggy conditions lingering both during the day and overnight.

While the forecast remains some time away and conditions can change, the potential change in wind patterns offers a promising sign that more comfortable weather could be approaching as Malta moves further into September.

For those longing for cooler evenings, fresher air and a break from the relentless humidity, mid-September could bring some welcome relief.

Are you looking forward to a breezier September?
