Largely dry and settled on Saturday, but strengthening winds on Sunday across Europe

Saturday
Mostly dry and fine across Spain and Portugal though with a few scattered showers about, these perhaps more affecting Ibiza and Majorica. The odd shower through Sardinia and Corsica as well as some scattered showers across southern Italy, but largely dry elsewhere here. Showers through Greece but mainly dry across Turkey.
Dry across much of central Europe thanks to high pressure. Winds will increase later across the Low Countries as well as northwest Germany and Poland.
Mild and dry though cloudy and windy across Denmark and the Baltic States. Largely dry through Norway and Sweden but some rain, sleet and snow reaching southern regions here. Windy across the far south. Mainly dry through Finland.

Sunday
Strengthened winds as well as rain pushing into northwestern regions of Spain and north Portugal. Dry with sunny spells elsewhere. Looking to stay dry through the Balearics and Sardinia but a few showers across Corsica pushing through central and southern Italy. Scattered showers across Greece too heading on to some Turkish coasts but mainly dry here.
A increasingly windy day across Europe, particularly the west, with outbreaks of heavy rain moving into west Franceand the Low Countries. Milder through much of France today too. Drier elsewhere but cloud will thicken for many western countries.
Staying milder across Denmark but it will be cloudy and windy with some patchy rain affecting the northern region. Strong winds across south Sweden still, less so further north and across Norway but with some rain about. A wet and windy day for Finland. Largely dry but windy for the Baltics.
