LARGE PART OF SPAIN ON ALERT
And it is that a large part of the country will be on yellow or orange alert this Tuesday due to wind, waves, snowfall, rain or thunderstorms, as reported by the State Meteorological Agency (AEMET).
Specifically, in Andalusia they will be in yellow for Almera and Granada. In Aragon, Huesca will be on orange alert for snowfall and Teruel on yellow alert for wind; y Asturias in orange notice of hello.
In addition, wind and waves will put the Balearic Islands at risk, which will also be at risk from rain and thunderstorms; and the waves will put Cantabria at risk. In Castilla y León the wind will put Ávila, Burgos, Salamanca, Segovia and Soria at risk; and Albacete in Castilla-La Mancha.
In Catalonia, Barcelona will be at risk from wind and coastal phenomena; Girona due to coastal phenomena; Lleida in important risks due to snowfall; and Tarragona at significant risk due to wind and coastal phenomena.
This Tuesday the wind will also put Madrid at risk; Murcia will be on yellow alert due to wind and waves; and Navarre on yellow alert for snowfall. In the Basque Country, Guipzcoa and Vizcaya will be on orange alert due to coastal phenomena.
La Rioja will instead be on yellow alert due to the wind; Alicante, Castelln and Valencia, in the Valencian Community, in yellow warning for wind and waves.
Aemet explained that a front will move eastwards across the Mediterranean, leaving some showers and thunderstorms on the Balearic Islands at dawn which could be locally strong, but tend to subside quickly and leave only cloudy intervals.
Simultaneously, a new Atlantic front system will produce increased cloudiness over much of the peninsula, with precipitation in Galicia, the Cantabrian Sea and the western half of the Pyrenees, and in a weaker form in the rest of the northwestern half of the peninsula. They can be locally strong or persistent in western Galicia.
With less probability and in a weaker and more dispersed form, the rainfall could extend to other areas of the peninsula, with the exception of the Mediterranean area, where there will be only medium and high cloud intervals. In the Canaries, cloudy intervals are expected in the north of the islands, with the possibility of some light precipitation in the highest relief, and little cloud cover in the rest.
The snowline will be positioned in the center and north of the Peninsula at 1,000/1,300 meters at dawn, rising to around 2,000 meters during the day; and in the south at 1,800/2,000 metres.
Temperatures will drop in the eastern half of the peninsula and the Balearic Islands, with little variation elsewhere. Furthermore, AEMET forecasts light frosts in the mountain systems of the center and north of the peninsula, a little more intense in the Pyrenees.
Moderate westerly and southwesterly winds will blow on Tuesday in the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, which will be strong in northwest Galicia, the Cantabrian Sea, the Levante area and the Balearic Islands, as well as in the mountainous areas. Moderate trade winds from the northeast to the Canary Islands.
