   outbreaks of heavy rain for the Balearics, and on a lesser extent over
   Sardinia and Corsica. Scattered showers for Italy, a few heavy in the
   south. Frequent heavy rain across the Balkan States, particularly in
   the south late in the day, these drifting into Bulgaria and Romania.
   Heavy showers in western Greece, drier east and sunny, as well as for
   T├╝rkiye and Cyprus.
   Scattered showers for France, but a longer spell of rain for the
   British Isles. A showery day for the Low Countries and northern Germany
   with strong westerly winds, risk gale force near the coasts. Some snow
   may fall on high ground. A cool day in Germany and Czechia, scattered
   showers and good sunny spells for Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary.
   Several outbreaks of rain will spread east over Poland. Rather cloudy
   for Switzerland and western Austria with outbreaks of rain, and snow on
   the mountains.
   Showers and broader areas of rain across Scandinavia with wintery
   precipitation over high ground. Only local sunny spells in central and
   southern parts of Norway and Sweden. Several outbreaks of rain pass
   southwest-to-northeast across the Baltic States with heavy bursts.

   Monday
   Sunny for much of Iberia, showers to the south. Mostly sunny across the
   central Mediterranean with a few light afternoon showers in Sardinia
   and Corsica. Fine and sunny in Italy with a few showers south, though
   the northern mountains will see substantial snow. Heavy rain around and
   before dawn over the southern Balkans and Greece, clearing east for
   mostly sunny conditions. Some rain will linger in northwest T├╝rkiye,
   otherwise sunny here.
   Strong westerly winds persist on the continent north of the Alps with a
   risk of gales onto the North Sea coast. Cool temperatures are likely
   from Germany eastward, though more mild in Ukraine and Romania. A broad
   area of rain in northern France and locally heavy east, more showery
   south. This heavy rain pushes into Switzerland and Austria, falling as
   heavy snow in the mountains. Frequent showers in the Low Countries and
   Germany, these pushing east into Poland, Czechia, and Slovakia. Drier
   with sunny spells for a time in Hungary, rain then arriving here too.
   Rain clearing east in Romania and Bulgaria for periods of sunshine.
   Showers remain ubiquitous across Scandinavia. Broader areas of rain
   will drift around northern Sweden and the Baltics with snow on higher
