Rain is spreading across almost the entire country, but some areas will receive it with more intensity.
Spain is experiencing a week marked by rain in many areas. These have been spreading across different regions and will continue to do so in the coming days.
Although almost the entire country will end up receiving rainfall, not all areas will be affected with the same intensity. Experts are warning about the territories that may record the most significant accumulations.
An Atlantic Front and a DANA: Rain in Many Areas
According to José Manuel Viñas, meteorologist at Meteored, the weather situation will be influenced by the presence of two low-pressure centers. These are located in the North Atlantic, west of the Iberian Peninsula. These systems will be associated with a drop of cold air that, temporarily, will give rise to a small DANA.
This phenomenon will cause a general increase in atmospheric instability. It will mark the beginning of a rain episode that will affect much of the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands. An Atlantic front, which has already begun to cross the westernmost part, is leaving locally heavy rainfall in the southwest.
Front's Progress: Where There Will Be More Rain on Wednesday
This Wednesday, the front will continue its progress eastward. It will spread rainfall across the central and eastern strip, except for the southeast, and also reaching the Balearic Islands. Rain is expected in 15 of the 17 autonomous communities at some point during the day.
As the front reaches the Mediterranean, the rain could intensify, affecting the coast of Catalonia, the Valencian Community, and the Balearic archipelago with particular force. In these three communities, the rainfall may be locally heavy and joined by storms in some areas, especially in the Balearic Islands.
The latest forecasts indicate that the rain will begin to affect the Balearic Islands from Wednesday morning, with generally light or moderate rain, although an occasional storm is not ruled out. During the afternoon, the surface low center will be near the archipelago, favoring irregular showers.
The moment of greatest instability is expected during the early hours of Thursday, when showers may be locally intense and joined by storms. According to current forecasts, the most significant records could occur in the north of Mallorca.
Although there is still some uncertainty in the evolution of this cold storm, models point to a notable rain episode in the archipelago.
Improvement in the West and Stability in the Canary Islands
As the front moves eastward, the rain will cease in the west and center of the Peninsula. This will allow for clearings in those areas. Meanwhile, the Canary Islands will remain unaffected by this situation, and the front is not expected to impact the archipelago.
Meteorological models will continue to adjust in the coming hours, so it is advisable to stay tuned for updates.
