Weather warning! Gale force winds expected on the Maltese Islands this weekend
Heads up!

Jillian Mallia

Things are about to get spicy up in here. Mother Nature is cooking up quite the stormy weekend, with gale force winds expected.

“An intensifying low pressure system over the western Mediterranean is expected to produce Gale Force 8 winds from a SSE direction this coming Saturday across Malta and Gozo before veering westerly by Sunday evening,” Malta Weather said.

And that’s not all! “Plenty of airborne Sahara Desert sand is also expected!” X’gost! Airborne sand combined with the forecasted showers only means one thing: mucky windows and cars. The local forecasters are pretty confident with this prediction, saying there’s a 70 per cent chance of all this happening. You can find us curled up under our blanket, with a hot cuppa and catching up on our series and leisure reading this weekend. #RelaxHassaGewwa
