Mauritius begins this Thursday with cloudy weather over the Central Plateau and the southeastern areas. A gentle northeast breeze of around 16 km/h brings moisture across the island, keeping the atmosphere warm, humid and slightly unstable as the morning progresses.
Morning Weather Conditions – Mauritius
During the morning hours, most regions will experience fair and calm weather, with a mix of clouds and soft sunlight. Local cloud development may still occur, especially inland, but any light showers that form will gradually drift towards the southwest, affecting areas such as Chamarel and Grand Bassin.
These showers will be brief and weak, and rainfall totals should remain minimal, with very little impact on outdoor activities.
Afternoon Weather Outlook – Developing Clouds
Later in the afternoon, the weather remains mostly stable across the island. However, a slow-moving cloud line currently developing over the eastern ocean is expected to reach Mauritius after 9 PM, bringing the first showers to the Central Plateau.
These showers will likely continue into tomorrow morning, and Friday may start with damp, cloudy conditions.
Weekend Weather – Important Changes Ahead
On Saturday, Mauritius will be influenced by a frontal system, bringing up to 20 mm of rain and a generally cloudy, cool and unsettled weather pattern throughout the day.
Sunday is expected to bring slight improvement, with brighter intervals returning.
However, longer-range models indicate that November 20 could bring another period of widespread heavy rainfall, so travelers and residents should monitor updates closely.
