Extreme weather conditions in Catalonia
Catalonia is preparing for an intense week marked by the persistent presence of snow and cold. Weather forecasts indicate that drastic changes in weather conditions will be more evident by the middle of this week. Temperatures will continue to fall, with snowfall that will mainly affect mountainous areas.
Precipitation and wind: a change in the panorama
Experts predict that, starting Tuesday, the wind will begin to decrease, allowing rain-laden clouds to take over. Snowfall will not be limited to the Pyrenees, but will spread to other regions, including the central coast, where significant showers are expected.
The impact of cold Arctic air
Recently, a mass of cold air from the Arctic has settled over Catalonia, causing a drastic drop in temperatures. This situation has created a wintry atmosphere that, although it will begin to improve slightly on Wednesday, temperatures are not expected to rise significantly.
Snowfall forecasts
As the week progresses, the snow level is expected to rise to around 1,000 meters, a notable change from the more than 2,000 meters previously recorded. This rise in snow level suggests a slight increase in temperatures, but the atmosphere will remain predominantly wintry.
The winter season is getting stronger
With winter just around the corner, many citizens have already prepared their winter clothing and are waiting for the ski resorts to open. Recent snowfalls have brought significant amounts of snow, indicating that the ski season could be very promising.
Reflections on the current weather
Catalonia is entering a winter period that looks set to last for months, after an autumn marked by instability. Fans of snow and cold can be pleased, as weather conditions appear favorable for enjoying the approaching winter.
