The Sunday closing the May long weekend arrives with overcast skies and storms affecting several inland and northern regions of the Valencian Community, with a yellow alert activated for Valencia province.

The day will be marked by rain and storms, with a risk of hail and strong winds in inland areas. Although precipitation could reach the coast, it will do so more weakly and irregularly by the end of the day.
Towards the afternoon, meteorological instability will increase, with growing storms that have activated a yellow alert in the northern and southern interior of Valencia province from 2:00 PM. Rainfall is expected to exceed 20 liters per square meter in one hour, accompanied by hail and strong wind gusts.
The storms will form inland and move towards the coast as hours pass. However, they will lose intensity before reaching the coast, where they might appear more irregularly and less intensely.
Temperatures remain largely unchanged, with highs ranging between 19 and 23 degrees Celsius across most of the territory. According to Avamet data, localities such as Sueca or Benidorm will register around 20 degrees, while in higher inland areas like El Toro or Vistabella del Maestrat, temperatures will hover around 9 or 10 degrees.
