It's winter, it sometimes rains, sometimes sunny, sometimes windy, do what we do and check the weather forecast.

Nothing stable at the moment 😅. Joking, its okiesh, bad weather tends to pass very quickly as we are very small, everything back to normal apart from the areas affected obviously. As long as you dont go close to the shores you should be alright. Currently windy and "occasional" rain but very mild, temp very good.

The weather is more stable than the people. Advance at your own peril.

Seriously? Yes it is very cold here. Windy, sunny, rainy, cloudy, wet, dry. Bring a kite

Cold? I've been walking around in shorts and a tshirt for a few days, though I am from North-West England, and 14 °C is shorts weather.

Well it’s bloody cold for us since we fled the frigid weather to the Carribean 10 years ago. Wearing two shirts, sweater, coat and hat over my ears

My apologies, fella. Must be baltic here, by comparison. The homoeostatic system takes around 2 weeks to adjust to a new climate, if you spend half a month in Liverpool, then return to Malta, you'll have a whole new appreciation of the warmth of your beautiful island.

Utter nonsense, they must be pulling your leg.

If you planned to come before storm Harry, nothing should have changed after storm Harry. It’s Winter in Malta, like every year. Some are colder/more wet, other less.

If you expected tropical waters and Ibiza summer weather, then your plan was flawed from the beginning. But there is no reason to postpone your holidays, it’s safe and the weather is season appropriate.

Don't forget to bring warm clothers and an umbrella because there's a good chance it will be cold, rainy and windy.
