Sun, Showers and Thunderstorms: Alicante Weather Forecast May 4–7
Unsettled Start, Better Finish
Following a humid and unsettled weekend, changeable conditions are set to persist through much of this week across Alicante province. The good news: forecasters suggest this is probably the last of the difficult weather before summer arrives properly. Keep an umbrella handy if you are heading out — but Thursday looks like a clear reward for getting through the earlier part of the week.
Monday, May 4
The most unsettled day of the forecast period. Expect plenty of cloud, scattered showers, and the chance of thunderstorms throughout the day. Temperatures will range from a minimum of 12°C to a maximum of 27°C. Winds will be light from east to south, but may strengthen in coastal areas.
Tuesday, May 5
Conditions remain unsettled — cloudy with sunny spells and scattered showers. It may feel a little cooler at times despite similar temperatures: 11°C minimum, 27°C maximum. Winds will be light and variable, with potential strengthening again along the coast.
Wednesday, May 6
Some improvement, though not without cloud. Expect sunny spells with the chance of light showers. Temperatures dip noticeably: 10°C minimum, 24°C maximum. Winds will be light, mainly westerly in the morning before turning easterly around midday.
Thursday, May 7 — Best Day of the Week
Thursday is the standout day: mostly clear skies and a pleasant 13°C minimum, 24°C maximum. Winds will be light and variable. After several days of cloud and showers, it should feel like a proper spring day — and a preview of the summer ahead.
The Bigger Picture
This week's changeable spell represents the transition from spring to summer along the Costa Blanca. Once this system clears, forecasters expect more stable, warmer conditions to take hold. For residents and visitors in Alicante province, the message is simple: get through the early part of the week and the weekend should reward the patience.
