An unusual March: the time in Catalonia
In March 2025 it has been a prominent period in the European climate landscape, and Francesc Mauri, the well -known meteorologist of TV3, has contributed a revealing perspective on the weather conditions that have affected Catalonia. The data is conclusive and illustrate a significant contrast with the rest of the continent.
Alarming data: Temperatures Records
According to a study by the Copernicus program, in March of this year it has set a record as the warmest registered in Europe since the beginning of climatic observations. Globally, this month it is second in the list of the warmest in history. These calls are compared to the reference period between 1991 and 2020, which generates increasing concern.
Catalonia: an exception in the general trend
Unlike other European regions that have experienced a dry and hot March, Catalonia has experienced a significant increase in rainfall. This climate paradox has surprised many, since the previous month was one of the rainiest registered. The data indicate that in Catalonia the rains have exceeded expectations for this time of year.
A water rescue for Catalonia
As Europe has struggled with a water deficit, Catalonia has been fortunate to receive a number of precipitation above the average. This is good news for many Catalan counties that have suffered for some time due to lack of water. The rain has helped to relieve, even partially, the drought that has been accumulating in recent years.
Expectations for the future: April on the horizon
With the change of month, experts are attentive to the possible weather conditions of April, a month that has traditionally been generous in rains. The coming weeks could be crucial for Catalonia, as additional rainfall could be key to ensuring water supply during the summer months, which are often dried.
Looking forward
The current situation invites us to reflect on the climatic dynamics and the importance of water resource management. With an increasingly unpredictable climate, the ability to adapt to these variations will be essential to meet the challenges that will come.
