El día de hoy es un día nublado, con viento. Pienso que hay probabilidad de que llueva. Es necesario salir bien abrigado. Si puedes, lleva tu paraguas porque seguro va a ver un poco de lluvia por la tarde. Y, no dudas sacarla si tienes bufanda!
Today is a cloudy, windy day. I think there is a chance of rain. It is necessary to go out warmly dressed. If you can, take your umbrella because you will surely see a bit of rain in the afternoon. And, don't hesitate to take it out if you have a scarf!
