On Saturday morning, October 3, 2026, scattered rains were reported in the eastern coastal regions of Tunisia. Meanwhile, the rest of the country experienced partly cloudy skies. According to the National Meteorological Institute, this weather pattern is expected to continue throughout the day. The institute's bulletin indicated that the western regions of the north and center will experience dense clouds in the afternoon, with the possibility of thunderstorms and heavy rainfall.
The wind is blowing from the southern sector in the north and center, and from the eastern sector in the south. Wind speeds are expected to be relatively strong near the coastlines and weak to moderate in the rest of the country. However, winds are expected to pick up during thunderstorms. The sea is generally choppy to very rough in the north, making it challenging for maritime activities.
Temperatures in Tunisia are expected to remain stable, with maximum temperatures ranging between 26 and 31 degrees Celsius. However, temperatures in the western highlands are expected to be around 23 degrees Celsius. The stable temperature is a welcome relief for the population, especially after a period of fluctuating weather conditions.
The National Meteorological Institute's bulletin also warned of the possibility of thunderstorms and heavy rainfall in some regions. This has prompted authorities to advise citizens to take necessary precautions to ensure their safety. The institute has been closely monitoring the weather situation and providing updates to the public.
In other news, the Tunisian National Meteorological Institute is not the only entity making headlines in Tunisia. The Tunisian Navigation Company has announced new flights on the Gergis line, starting from October 3, 2026. This development is expected to boost tourism and trade in the region.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Family and Childhood is organizing a series of specialized training courses for childhood cadres. The courses, which started on October 2, 2026, aim to equip professionals with the necessary skills to care for children. The ministry has been working tirelessly to improve the welfare of children in Tunisia.
The University of Manouba has also announced that it will continue to accept applications for a documentary film production workshop until October 6, 2026.
