The snow has reached the mountains of Ronda where it fell up to 900 metres of altitude and the temperatures fell around eight degrees compared to yesterday.
The cold front that yesterday began to sweep across the whole of Malaga province has left the first snowfall of the year and the first so far this winter. For the moment, the snow has only reached the Ronda mountains it has fallen up to 900 metres of altitude and the temperatures fell around eight degrees compared to yesterday.
In the rest of the province it’s also very cold and it’s raining, although throughout the afternoon and evening, it will stop and give way to the good weather again as from tomorrow.

Weather forecasts… are, like everything else, quite relative…
Of course looking at the weather forecast can be quite useful when planning a weekend getaway, no doubt. But it also seems that sometimes the forecasts do not match or vary significantly depending on the site consulted, as is now the case for Malaga weather for this weekend.
Funny enough the same thing happened last week: While we all wanted to spend a sunny weekend lying on the sand, the forecast was of rain and bad weather, much to our regret.
Great was then the surprise when dawned a splendid and sunny weekend and we could glimpse many spontaneous bathers enjoying the sea and sun on beaches still pretty empty at this time of year.
So what awaits us this weekend? I have in front of me pages with two different weather forecasts:
One forecasts for tomorrow Saturday a cloudy day with temperatures around 22ºC (71.6ºF) and a sunny day on Sunday, with temperatures of 23ºC (73.4ºF).
Looking at my other source of information, I find for Saturday a sunny outlook and a maximum of 26ºC (78.8ºF) and for Sunday a little bit cloudy day, with about 24º C (75.2ºF).
From this we can deduce the following: One day of the two I’m going to the beach for sure! Which one, this we will have to decide a bit on the spot.

The weather forecast for this weekend in Malaga says that tomorrow it will rain, so if you were thinking about getting to the beach or enjoying the characteristic good weather of the Costa del Sol, you may have to make some changes to your plans.
My personal recommendation for this weekend is to enjoy film in English (available at Plaza Mayor) or to drink a cup of tea in one of the many coffee shops on the promenade during the afternoon (I love watching rain while drinking tea in a covered terrace).
Malaga does not only mean “Beaches“, but many other things. If you can drive, get to discover the different white villages in the province or drive to Granada to enjoy the famous “Tapas” from the city.
Rain does not mean to stay at home, which you can do if you like, but to enjoy a different side of Malaga and the Costa del Sol, which not many tourists who come during the summer use to know.
