Tuesday is formed a new DANA which will cross the peninsula on Wednesday. This will hit the entire Levant again, so it will rain on the mud. It is still too early to know its intensity and its exact remedies. But what can we expect?
After a few days of stability, a cold air mass is expected to move from northern Europe to the southwest in the coming days, reaching the peninsula and the Balearic Islands from Tuesday and causing a general drop in temperatures. You will probably end up isolating yourself like a DANA (Isolated High Level Depression) or cold storm around the Mediterranean or the south of the peninsula from Wednesday 13th, remaining in our environment until Saturday 16th.
The increase in instability will be accompanied by the entry of a humid flow from the eastern Mediterranean, It is therefore likely that heavy and persistent precipitation will occur in some areas of the Balearic Islands and the Mediterranean slope, without also excluding the possibility of snow in the mountain systems of parts of the Cantabrian Sea and the center of the peninsula.
There is great uncertainty about the position of the depression and, therefore, the distribution and amount of precipitation. The most likely scenario at present is that rains begin on Tuesday in the Mediterranean area, most probably to the south of the Balearic archipelago, notably in the Pitiusas, without excluding other points on the Mediterranean coast. They are also likely to occur in the Cantabrian Sea and the northern Pyrenees, with snow in mountainous areas.
From Wednesday, it is likely that the precipitation will be distributed over a large part of the peninsula, in the form of snow in mountain systems, although levels would gradually increase.
In uncertainty, they are currently expected to be more intense and persistent in parts of the Balearic Islands and the Mediterranean slope, particularly north of Cape La Nao initially and, later, north of the Valencian Community and the coasts. and pre-coastal areas of Catalonia and, with less probability, on the Andalusian Mediterranean coast. In these areas it could accumulate throughout the event approximately 80-100 mm, or locally more than 200 mm.
