Meteorological changes to the horizon
Catalonia is aiming for a new meteorological chapter with the perspective of significant rainfall that could alter the usual climate landscape. The forecasts indicate that in the coming days, the water will fall strongly in various regions, marking a significant contrast with the most stable conditions of recent times.
Affected areas and quantities of water
The coastal areas and the interior of the Catalan territory will be the most benefited by this new wave of rainfall. It is expected that the Costa Brava and the Barcelona Metropolitan Region will register accumulations of water that could exceed 40 mm, and in some places, even 80 mm. These figures suggest a significant increase in environmental humidity, especially in the regions of the South and in the Alt and Baix Empordà.
A cooler and more damp atmosphere
With the arrival of the rains, the temperatures will descend considerably, providing a feeling more of winter. The inner counties will be the worst affected, thus creating a cooler climate that can be welcomed by those seeking a breath of high temperatures.
Snows in the Pyrenees: Opportunity for athletes
The rainfall in the mountains of the Pyrenees will be translated into snow, increasing the conditions for winter sports. This phenomenon will not only provide a new layer on the slopes, but also a relief for agriculture and reservoirs, which will benefit from the necessary water.
Expectations for March
Despite the expectations that the end of winter may mark in March, forecasts indicate that the cold and the rains will persist for a while. This station, known for its climate variability, promises a start marked by storms and showers, with an atmosphere closer to winter than in spring.
Toward a rainy winter end
Current conditions suggest that weather stability will take a long time to return. The inhabitants of Catalonia will have to prepare for an end of winter with rains, low temperatures and a good dose of snow at the high levels, while waiting for spring to arrive more serenely.
