Aemet already knows when the storm that is soaking Spain is over. The problem is that another act comes another

Precipitation has returned to the east and southeast of the Peninsula. A Episode of instability whose ending to see the meteorologists. Of course, there are still days of heavy rains in much of the country. Last special notice. Yesterday Tuesday, the State Meteorology Agency (AEMET), updated its Special notice of adverse phenomena associated with storms that these days suffer different points of the Peninsula. In the notice, the agency, in addition to accounting for the weather forecasts, addressed the probable evolution of the event in the remainder of the week. Changes, perhaps not what we expected. Aemet’s forecasts indicate a trend change as of Friday. Of course, this change in the atmospheric situation will not imply the end of the rains. The reason is in An Atlantic storm which will become responsible for instability over the weekend. What will change will be the areas where the rains are concentrated. On Friday the instability will be reduced in the east peninsular, while in the west will begin to notice the arrival of the new storm. Aemet points out, of course, that uncertainty is high regarding this new meteorological phenomenon. Meanwhile… Waiting for the arrival of the change in trend, Aemet warns of the persistence of the rains. According to their forecasts For today, “strong and/or persistent rainfall” is expected that will affect a good part of the east and southeast peninsular, as well as the environment of the central, narrow system and areas of Malaga, the agency indicates. Accumulated rainfall could occur in Castellón, Valencia, Murcia and Almería. In some areas of these provinces, the 100 millimeters could be exceeded. The notices Yellow by rains extend for a good part of the east and southeast, while the orange notices are concentrated in the provinces of Tarragona, Castellón and Valencia. Few changes. The situation on Thursday will be similar, with “strong and/or persistent rainfall” in the central system and especially in Valencia, Castellón, Tarragona and surrounding areas. In some of these areas, 150 mm could be exceeded. They are also possible, adds the agency, the “strong showers” in the prelital of Catalonia and Malaga, as well as indoors in the southeast peninsular. The notices For rains they will be similar to Wednesday, with various areas of the east and southeast in yellow warning and a good part of the provinces of Tarragona, Castellón and Valencia under orange warning. A partial relief. The arrival of a new storm in a practically consecutive way implies that in many of the areas affected by rain the relief could only be temporary. It is still early to know to what extent and for how long this new storm will affect the Peninsula, so it will be essential to pay attention to weather predictions throughout the week.

In the middle of a huge “train of storms”, AEMET has just pronounced the most anticipated word of winter: snow

The rain no respite and he’s not going to give it. Neither the rain, nor the winds, nor the snow. While the storm Herminia full of red notices the entire northwest part of the peninsula, the forecasts have us all looking at an Atlantic full of surprises. Among them, snow. What Herminia is doing. In recent days, the entire country has been revolving around Herminia. In some regions (such as Galicia) the intensity of the winds forced to divert flights and cancel trains. The worst, however, had not yet passed: this Monday will be the strongest day of the storm. 16 autonomous communities They have notices from the AEMET. Until Tuesday, Herminia will unfold a temporary more than considerable with wind, waves, rain and snow. But, as we said, Herminia is nothing more than the appetizer. According to predictive models, two new storms are going to cross the peninsula. The first will make its debut on the same Wednesday. In fact, on Tuesday a very cold air mass of polar origin will begin to enter the country. We talk about “temperatures at about 5500 meters altitude (500 hPa)”, explained Sergio Escama in Meteored. But the interesting thing is that we will notice it down here. What will we notice? The winter. Winter in its meteorologically pure state. From Wednesday the general drop in temperatures will be evident and snow will affect to the Cantabrian Mountains, the Pyrenees, the Central System, the Iberian System and other inland areas. The snow level is not clear yet, but is expected to be low. And that will be only the first of the post-Herminia storms. Because, according to AEMET modelsafter a very entertaining Wednesday-Thursday with the snow (and its problems); A busy weekend will follow. That is, the “storm train” extends as far as we can reliably see. This precision is important because, although right now there is a possibility that this second storm will be more intense than the previous ones, the time frame prevents us from being able to estimate its virulence accurately. What can we do? Luckily, The recommendations for now are the same: avoid unnecessary trips; prepare for the cold, wind and snow; and pay attention to weather and civil protection updates. We already know that this is one of the great paradoxes of snow: it is something as wonderful and fascinating as it is full of problems.
