Plans by communities End of the state of alarm: restrictions from May 9 in the communities
The weather
in the coming days will offer two well differentiated faces in large areas of
Spain
because the sun will shine and temperatures will rise to their own values of early summer until this Saturday, when the
state of alarm will
decline to stop the
coronavirus
, but a
deep
storm
The panorama will change as of Sunday with
widespread rains
and a
thermal drop of up to 15 degrees
that will return the atmosphere of late winter to many places.
The prediction of the
State Meteorological Agency (Aemet)
, collected by Servimedia, indicates that between this Saturday and next Monday there will be a drop of 15 degrees in
Madrid
; 14 in
Toledo
and
Zamora
; 13 in
Ávila
,
Cáceres
,
Ciudad Real
,
Cuenca
,
Guadalajara
,
León
,
Salamanca
and
Segovia
; 12 in
Badajoz
and
Córdoba
, and 11 in
Seville
.
"We are talking about a Saturday with temperatures more typical of the beginning of summer, in general, and a Monday with more typical values of the end of winter. However, it should be noted that it is not strange that in spring such large oscillations occur in temperatures from one day to the next or over the course of days, "said
Rubén del Campo
, a spokesman for
Aemet
.
Among the provincial capitals, this second Saturday in May will bring forward the heat of mid-July in
Zaragoza
(33ºC),
Bilbao
(32) and
Logroño
(30); from the beginning of July in
Murcia
(33); at the end of June in
Córdoba
(33),
Jaén
(31) and
Lleida
(30), and in mid-June in
Seville
(32),
Badajoz
(31) and
Granada
and
Toledo
(30).
On the contrary, on Monday the cold or mild atmosphere of the end of February will return to
Segovia
(11),
Guadalajara
(13),
Madrid
(14) and
Toledo
(16);
from the beginning of March to
Ávila
and
León
(12),
Cuenca
and
Zamora
(14),
Cáceres
and
Ciudad Real
(16),
Ourense
(17) and
Badajoz
(19), and from mid-March to
Salamanca
(14) and
Córdoba
and
Seville
(21).
Nameless squall, for now
On the other hand, the situation called
'barometric swamp'
- that is, when the atmospheric pressure is very similar in most of Spain - will continue in the coming days, although between Thursday and Friday a storm will form in Atlantic waters the deepening of which is likely to be rapid and will move towards Ireland over the weekend.
"We can speak of an
explosive cyclogenesis
, something that will happen, anyway, far from the Iberian Peninsula," said Del Campo.
An explosive cyclogenesis is a process by which a storm deepens -that is, it intensifies very quickly- and usually gives rise to storms with a pressure difference between its center and its outer part, which can generate very strong winds and maritime storm.
What usually affects the population is the storm intensified by a process of explosive cyclogenesis, not the explosive cyclogenesis itself.
"We could assimilate these concepts with the process of cooking a dish: the cyclogenesis would be the process of cooking and the storm, the dish that we have prepared," Del Campo clarified.
The
deep storm
will not fully affect the Iberian Peninsula, but its effects will be noticeable. "First, on Saturday because it will drive south winds and cause temperatures to rise especially in the northern half and, above all, on the shores of the Cantabrian Sea, where that day will exceed 30 degrees and the risk of fires will skyrocket. Already on Sunday , a front associated with the storm will cause a marked change in the weather, with rains in large areas and a notable drop in temperatures, "said Del Campo.
The Aemet spokesman clarified that it is still "early" to know if that storm will be designated with the name of Mathieu.
"For this, it is necessary to give rise to the activation of orange warnings due to intense gusts of wind in large areas and it is still not possible to determine if this will finally happen, although today the truth is that it is unlikely," he added.
Saturday
On Saturday the slightly cloudy skies will continue in almost all of
Spain
, although in the afternoon a storm could occur in the surroundings of the
Pyrenees
and in the last hours the rain would appear in the west of
Galicia
.
The highlight will be the thermal rise in the northern third of the peninsula, which could be extraordinary in the interior of
the Basque Country
- that is, a rise of more than 10 degrees compared to Friday. "The cause? The south winds driven by the deep Atlantic storm, which reach that area overheated and dry after crossing the entire peninsula, and they get even warmer when descending the mountains that close the plateau to the north," explained Del Countryside.
Thus, there will be more than 30 degrees and strong gusts of winds from the south in areas of the interior of the Basque Country, which will increase the risk of fires.
It will also reach 30 degrees in the
Ebro valley
and 32 degrees in the
Guadiana and Guadalquivir valleys
.
"In general, the maximums will be above 25 degrees in much of the rest of the peninsula," summarized Del Campo.
Sunday
A "sudden change in weather" will arrive on Sunday, according to Del Campo, as a fairly active cold front associated with the deep Atlantic storm will arrive on the peninsula and whose center will be located that day near the western coasts of Ireland.
This cold front will give rise to general rains and showers in the western half of the peninsula, which may be strong, persistent and be accompanied by storms in
Galicia
, the extreme west of
Castilla y León
, and the north of
Extremadura
.
Rainfall will spread throughout the day to the east and could also be strong and be accompanied by a storm in the
Pyrenees
and
the Iberian System
.
Showers will be less likely - or weak, if they occur - on the
Mediterranean coast
and the
Ebro valley
.
The position of the storm, whose center will be over Ireland, will cause the winds to blow from the west and southwest, with strong gusts in much of the peninsula and gusts that could be very strong above 70 or 80 km / h at high points and coastlines of the northern half.
After the passage of the front, colder air will reach the peninsula, which will lead to a notable and general drop in temperatures, especially in the western half.
The decline could be extraordinary in areas of
Castilla y León
and
Extremadura
.
The Balearic Islands
will get rid of the cold front because it will see temperatures rise and it will not receive rain.
From Monday
On Monday of next week, the unstable environment will continue through rains and stormy showers that can affect a large part of the peninsula, with less probability in the southeast.
The showers could reach the Balearic Islands and will be more intense in the north of Aragon and Catalonia, although they are not ruled out in other parts of the northern third and surroundings of
the Central System
and
the Iberian System
.
That day the thermal decline will continue, especially in the center and the eastern interior of the peninsula, where the drop will be notable.
Instead, temperatures will rise somewhat on the shores of the Mediterranean.
On Tuesday the unstable environment will continue, especially in the extreme north of the peninsula, where heavy rainfall is expected, especially in the
Pyrenees
.
Temperatures will barely change, keeping the environment cool.
As of Wednesday, the weather is likely to stabilize again, with less rain and increasingly higher temperatures.
Finally, the
Canary Islands
will have a regime of trade winds in the coming days, which at times can be strong, and clouds in
Lanzarote
,
Fuerteventura
and the north of the more mountainous islands, where, in addition, some drizzle could appear.
Temperatures will remain unchanged.
