Few showers eastern Spain, Italy and Greece but fine central Europe and west

Tuesday
Dry and fine across Spain and Portugal with temperatures feeling very warm by the afternoon. More cloud and the risk of a shower or two across the Balearics and Italy though many staying dry with sunny spells. Staying unsettled across the Balkans, Greece and Turkey with heavy cloud and spells of rain.
A dry and fine day for many in northern Europe though feeling cooler than it should further east. SE France though looks to see localised heavy showers and gusty winds. A few mist and fog patches to start then widespread sunshine for many. Some patchy rain in the far northeast of Poland with cloudy skies and possible patchy rain across Hungary.
Dry and fine across Denmark again as well as throughout Sweden, Norway and Finland, though more cloud cover in the very north here. Possible slow moving showers to affect the Baltics otherwise dry here too.

Wednesday
Fair for much of Spain and Portugal although windy and warm with plenty of cloud, especially in the east. More sunshine to come in the western and central Mediterranean. Scattered showers for Italy. More showers in Greece and Turkey but some sunny spells here too.
France will be staying dry with more sunshine, but some cloud may affect southern areas. Scattered showers in Germany with some more persistent rain and even sleet likely in eastern Poland. Hungary may have a few showers whilst Austria should be largely dry. Some showers in Switzerland, a few heavy.
Denmark will be dry with lots of sunshine here. Breezy for the Baltic States but dry and cold. Chilly in Finland with some sunshine. Staying fair for Sweden with more sunshine here. Some cloud in western Norway otherwise fair and dry.
