A North-Easterly gale shifted sand across the road in Għadira Bay on Thursday morning, blocking the road for most traffic.
Most of the sand was cleared by late morning.
The bad weather, right at the start of spring, is expected to continue until Friday, with a thunderstorm possible on Thursday afternoon.
Weekend weather is expected to improve, though rainfall is anticipated for Saturday.
Malta experienced rough weather in the last month, with a February storm proving to be the most devastating since 1982.
