Temperatures are forecast to climb steadily from Tuesday, with daytime highs ranging between 21°C and 23°C through the middle of the week. Overnight temperatures will remain chilly, dropping to between 6°C and 8°C, meaning residents should still dress warmly during the early mornings and evenings.

The capital is expected to remain dry throughout the week, with little to no chance of rainfall. Conditions will improve further from Thursday onwards as clear skies and abundant winter sunshine dominate the forecast.
