   but with dry and sunny spells mixed in. Finland mostly dry with sunny
   spells as well, just some morning rain in the east. Frequently raining

   Balearics. The rest of Iberia dry with much sunshine. Showery over

   showery rain in Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, and east Austria with a
   brisk northwesterly wind. Drier in Hungary with bright spells. A band
   of rain passes east across Romania and Ukraine, drier with a mix of
   cloud and sun for Bulgaria.
   Persistent rain onto Norway's west coast in a strong westerly wind,
   snow on the higher mountains and in northern areas. Dry for a time in
   Sweden, but the rain and snow will drift into northern areas on the
   wind as the day goes. Only spotty rain further south and in Denmark
