A week of climatic contrasts in Catalonia
Catalonia faces an unstable weather landscape that has marked the last days. After a few days of relative calm, experts provide for a drastic turn from Thursday with the arrival of significant rains.
Meteocat’s notice on impending precipitation
The Meteocat has issued a warning to warn about the weather conditions approaching. The rains will be especially concentrated in the coastal areas and in the pre -coastal areas, where water accumulations can be recorded above 100 mm in some areas.
East effects
A east wind, which comes from the sea, will help intensify precipitation on both the coast and mountain areas. This phenomenon, accompanied by the orographic effect, will increase the amount of rain in these regions.
Snowfall at heights
The conditions are also favorable for snowfall in the highest areas, with a snow level that will initially be between 1,600 and 1,700 meters, increasing slightly in the afternoon.
A weekend with more instability
On Friday, a decrease in rainfall is expected, with a partial improvement of time. However, the weekend is announced with a new rainy wave, driven by a storm that approaches the Atlantic.
Adverse maritime conditions
In addition to the rains, the sea storm will also be a factor to take into account, with waves that could reach 2 to 3 meters, making it difficult for activities to the coast and navigation.
Reflections on the changing climate
With these forecasts, the importance of being informed of weather conditions is clear, as sudden changes can affect the daily lives of citizens. Catalonia is preparing to face a weekend marked by instability and rains.
