An unexpected wave of Fred
The arrival of winter in Catalonia has left behind the mild temperatures that had prevailed in recent weeks. However, this Monday, thermometers plummeted, marking a start to the year marked by intense cold.
Frosts throughout the territory
With frost affecting both inland and coastal areas, Meteocat warns of lows that have dropped below zero degrees in much of the region. Citizens will have to resort to coats and scarves to cope with the adverse weather conditions.
A day marked by the wind
The cold doesn’t come alone, as the wind will intensify the sensation of low temperatures. In Empordà, the northerly winds will be especially strong, while the peaks of the Pyrenees will experience moments of extreme wind. Thus, the thermal perception will be more severe, even in areas where the wind is milder.
Cold and wind alerts
Active wind alerts remain in effect, with an intense cold warning expected for Monday. This indicates that the harsh winter weather will continue, forcing the population to remain vigilant regarding weather conditions.
Hope for warmer temperatures
Despite the intense cold, Meteocat predicts a slight improvement in temperatures by mid-week. The sun promises to shine again, bringing a little warmth after the harsh winter weeks.
Preparation for winter
The citizens of Catalonia will have to be prepared for a start to the week characterized by the most authentic cold. Frosts and sub-zero temperatures will be a constant, reminding everyone that winter has arrived in full force.
