The rain appears to be short-lived, with sunshine on Wednesday and Thursday, and clouds on Friday and Saturday.

As far as temperatures go, expect daytime highs ranging from 20°C to 23°C. Keep in mind, however, it’ll likely feel several degrees warmer due to humidity. Overnight lows will range in the mid-teens, between 14°C and 15°C.
