The aurport seemed to run well yesterday evening, but this morning flights are finding it hard to land, and waiting for an opportunity.
The Portuguese Institute of the Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA) predicts, for this Monday, in Madeira, generally very cloudy skies and showers, more frequent and intense on the northern slopes and highlands of the island of Madeira, especially until mid-morning.
