The weather in the coming days is expected to be ideal for those planning to celebrate the start of the New Year outdoors, as the Meteorological Office forecasts partly cloudy skies and temperatures above the seasonal average.
On New Year's Eve, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy, with light winds (Force 2-3) from the southeast. The highest temperature is forecast to reach 17°C, dropping to 10°C at night.
The coldest New Year's Eve on record remains that of 10 years ago when temperatures dropped to 2.1°C. On that day, December 31st, 2014, some snowflakes were observed briefly over the Maltese Islands.
Partly cloudy conditions are also expected to greet 2025 on Wednesday, January 1st, although the weather will become somewhat cloudier at night. Winds will remain light from the east-southeast. On New Year's Day, temperatures will again reach 17°C during the day and drop to 10°C at night.
For those who won't be working in the days following the New Year and plan to enjoy the last days of the festive season with family and friends, the weather is expected to remain partly cloudy. However, isolated showers are possible between Thursday, January 2nd, and Saturday, January 4th. Winds will stay light but are expected to strengthen slightly from the northwest (Force 4-5) between Saturday and Sunday, January 5th.
