Showing 61F at Faro on Wunderground at the moment, so I think Albufeira.com's link may have a bit of a glitch !!

If the question had been asked in Centigrade and Fahrenheit,I would have replied in both currencies, being bi-lingual !!

Today in Albufeira the sun has just come out (I am back) and it is looking good. Time to put out the washing!
it may well have been 46F overnight; it was lower than that a couple of weeks ago.

It's still showing 46F, can it not be fixed, it does not look good for attacting people thinking of comming for a holiday in the not to distant future, they will think we have been hit by Global Cooling rather than warming!

I should imagine that the data comes from an external feed over which Albufeira.com's administration has no control. (Although I'm open to correction on that ! )

Sagres is right. The raw data (called METAR) is coming from Faro airport which is distributed via Internet that we pick up and convert into readable information.
They are still delivering readings regularly but the temperature seems to be stuck.
We're investigating...
Sorry for the inconvenience.

The sky is blue and the forecast is for 18C, variable winds and maybe a few clouds. Unfortunately the radar is off-line so I cannot see for myself whether there is any rain in the offing!

Another bright, warm and sunny day in prospect! Forecast 18C with a few clouds; variable light winds.
No rain at present within 100km.
Now why did I move down here?

Same reason as those of us who are still 'doing time' at work before making the exact same move perhaps? The place,the pace,the people,the weather...

Current weather report on Albufeira.com homepage is working properly now.
We had to change the source of the raw data readings which wasn't being updated correctly.
We hope this current source will be more reliable...

Well Guya will be in mid-air now and as the flight crosses the Algarve there will be a perfect view, as another bright sunny day is with us. 19C is the forecast and more of the same tomorrow; maybe a little cooler on Monday with a little cloud.
