According to SUR's weather expert José Luis Escudero, Malaga "will be visited by another cold front that will leave precipitation in more parts of the province" early on Wednesday morning. Light showers along the coast are not ruled out. "Sierra de las Nieves and especially Sierra Tejeda are likely to receive snow from 1,500 metres above sea level," Escudero says.
As for Malaga city, there is 100% chance of rainfall between midnight and 6am. Temperatures will also drop. "Maximum temperatures will fall throughout the province of Malaga. In addition, the wind will make the thermal sensation even colder," Escudero warns. According to Aemet, Malaga city can expect a minimum of 12C and a maximum of 16C. This drop will be more pronounced in inland municipalities such as Ronda and Antequera, where temperatures will drop to between 4C and 9-10C.
