eltiempo.es, Europa Press Urgent notice from Mario Picazo: the 4 areas where it will rain heavily until Sunday
It seems that the days ahead this week are still going to be complicated in certain communities.
Meteorologist Mario Picazo has issued an urgent warning to the Spanish population regarding the imminent arrival of storm Éowyn. It is a low-pressure system that will intensify significantly in the coming hours. This storm will bring heavy rains to the west of the Iberian Peninsula.
This new atmospheric disturbance mentioned by Mario Picazo adds to the precipitation already recorded in recent days. This considerably worsens the situation and increases the risk of flooding in large areas of the country.
Galicia and Andalusia, in Éowyn's Spotlight
According to the latest meteorological models on which Mario Picazo relies, Galicia will become one of the epicenters of this intense rainfall activity.
The water accumulation maps reveal that some areas of the Galician community could receive up to 120 liters per square meter in the coming hours. In other localities, accumulations of up to 60 liters are expected. This amount of water, concentrated in a short period, could cause complications.
Andalusia, especially the provinces of Huelva, Seville, and Cádiz, is also in the highest risk zone. Mario Picazo's weather forecasts point to significant rain accumulations as well. They will be up to 60 liters, which could lead to severe flooding in these regions.
Extremadura and Castilla Y León are Not Far behind
Northern extremadura is not spared from this storm, with accumulations exceeding 70 liters per square meter. In the northwest of Castilla y León, precipitation of between 20 and 40 liters is expected. These figures are not as wingere as those in Galicia, but caution should still be exercised in these areas.
Right now, these four communities will be the most affected according to Mario Picazo. The current models on which the expert relies show this, but attention must be paid to any changes that may occur in the coming hours.
Beware of the Risk of Flooding
The saturation of the soil, a consequence of the rains in previous days, significantly increases the risk of flooding. Even less intense precipitation could cause overflows and flooding in vulnerable areas. Experts warn that it is essential for the population to be prepared.
Through the media and social networks, it is important to stay informed about the latest developments regarding the storm's evolution. It is crucial to avoid dangerous situations by not driving during heavy rains or in areas at risk of flooding.
