A new spin on spring time
After a Holy Easter holiday that have been expected by many, Catalonia is facing a meteorological change that can surprise more than one. The forecast maps are updated, indicating that the stable conditions that have been recently experienced will be altered by an episode of instability.
Arrival of cold air and storms on the horizon
A mass of cold air approaches the region, causing sprinkling to be expected, some of them with considerable intensity, especially during the central hours of the day. Early in the morning, the sky is quite cloudy, with some clearings on the coast and eastern Barcelona. The first drops have already been present in areas such as the Western Pyrenees and the Terres de l’Ebre.
Areas most affected by the storm
The afternoon promises to be especially active in terms of stormy activity, with a focus of impact in 18 Catalan counties. The regions that must be attentive are the Terres de l’Ebre, the Pyrenees and the Central Catalonia, where intense showers are expected. Instead, the central coast and the Costa Brava could escape with less rainfall.
Temperatures constantly changing
Temperatures will also experience significant variations. The lows have been slightly higher than in previous days, but the maximum will be conditioned by the rain. In Terres de l’Ebre, a decrease of up to four degrees is expected, while in the northern third of Catalonia, the descents will be similar.
An imminent stabilization
Despite the episode of storms, it is expected that from Wednesday the weather situation will begin to stabilize, thanks to the return of anticyclonic conditions. Although some weak rains could still occur during the morning on the coast, the rest of the day is expected to be sunny, with pleasant temperatures that could reach 22 degrees on the coast.
Final reflections
As the weather changes approach, Catalonia is preparing to face a new stage in its spring weather. Storms could offer an impressive natural show, and the stabilization of time in the coming days reminds us of the beauty and diversity of the region’s climate.
