A DANA and a polar air mass shake Spain
A large mass of polar air is arrivingwith some details that may end up making a difference. The experts of the El Tiempo channel have found weather maps that could end up affecting us completely. We have to look at the sky to see what awaits us.
As they explain in their forecast: “A new week begins with variable and unstable weather in much of Spain. On Tuesday, a small DANA will be isolated to the west of Portugal, which will quickly cross the south of the peninsula. Behind it will be a descending branch of the polar jet that will be very intense, which will favor the formation of a storm in the Gulf of Genoa.
Continuing with the same forecast: “This will result in a significant episode of Tramuntana, with a significant drop in temperatures in a good part of the peninsula and the Balearic Islands. In some areas, the thermal atmosphere will be typical of a deep autumn, with minimum temperatures that will force you to take out your long sleeves.
Better get ready to get out the umbrella: “According to the weekly maps of our header model, the week will be dry in most of Spain. Only light rain could occur in the eastern Cantabrian Sea and in some areas of the Balearic Islands. During the week, it will rain, especially in areas exposed to the north wind. 20-30 l/m2 could be exceeded in the Cantabrian Sea, the Pyrenees, the eastern half of Catalonia, the northern Balearic Islands and, occasionally, in some areas of the Strait. For the rest, no rain is expected, except for some light precipitation in the Mediterranean area, the central system and the Iberian system. “We will have to follow the final trajectory of the DANA that will arrive from the Atlantic.”
With the rain will also come this significant drop in temperatures: “The arrival of an unusually cool air mass for the time of year will lower temperatures to autumnal values in several regions. According to our reference model, the week will be cold or very cold in almost all of Spain. In most of the peninsula and the Balearic Islands, the anomalies will be in the order of -1 to -3 ºC. In the northern interior of the peninsula, temperatures can be up to 6 ºC below the seasonal average. It will be one of the coldest weeks in recent times: “From Monday, nighttime values will drop below 10 ºC on the northern plateau, inland Galicia and in the mountainous areas. In the peaks of the Pyrenees, there will be frost, with temperatures of 0 to -2 ºC. As the week progresses, temperatures will decrease, with minimums below 10 ºC in much of the northern interior of the peninsula and dropping below 5-6 ºC on the northern plateau. Frosts will be widespread in the Pyrenees, the central, Iberian and Cantabrian mountains. In the Pyrenees, it could drop below -4 and even -6 ºC.
