Rain and wind mark the next few days in the Azores and Madeira: the forecast until Wednesday, September 2nd

Meteored Portugal28 August 2026 at 15:54

The passage of Atlantic disturbances will condition the weather in the Azores over the next few days, with rain and some wind, while in Madeira precipitation will be more irregular, concentrating mainly on the north-facing slopes and the highlands. Until Wednesday, September 2nd, the two archipelagos will have distinct weather developments.

In the Azores, the anticyclonic influence should favor greater atmospheric stability on Friday, with insignificant precipitation. The situation begins to change on Saturday, as the anticyclone loses influence and the archipelago becomes more exposed to the passage of Atlantic disturbances, increasing cloud cover, precipitation, and wind.

On Sunday morning, a band of cloud cover and precipitation should cross the Azores archipelago, maintaining conditions of greater instability in the following days. In Madeira, precipitation will be more irregular and conditioned by the terrain, with greater incidence on the north-facing slopes and the highlands.
