Frosty and fresh: Alicante Christmas weather forecast Dec 21-26
Daytime temperatures will hit 20ºC in parts of Alicante province on Christmas Day
Weather outlook on Christmas Day
Although the temperatures are set to take on a more wintery feel in the coming days, the skies will remain cloudless throughout Alicante province so the lead-up to Christmas, and the festive period itself, will be sunny and pleasantly warm during the central hours.
The mercury will take a noticeable dip inland as Christmas approaches, resulting in weak frosts in places and even sub-zero night-time temperatures, but the holidays will remain dry for the most part.
Thursday December 21
Thursday will be mostly bright and sunny with few changes to the temperatures, which will remain in the high teens during the day. Weak frosts are expected inland and a light westerly wind will be far more blustery along the coast in the afternoon.
