The arrival of a DANA will cause snowfall and intense cold in the peninsula and the Balearic Islands next week
The Isolated Depression in High Levels (
DANA
) that will enter this Monday through the north of the peninsula, "coming from high latitudes" will bring snow at "relatively low levels in large areas of the Peninsula, intense and persistent rainfall in the northeast peninsular quadrant, as well as a sharp drop in temperatures ", explains the prediction of the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet).
There will therefore be a
drastic change in the weather
due to "the entry of a very cold air mass of polar origin that will remain for several days in the surroundings of the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands" highlights the prediction of the Aemet this Sunday.
The snow level will fall tomorrow to about
800-1000 meters in the northern half
, so that the snowfall will affect the Cantabrian mountain range to a greater extent, being able to reach thicknesses around 10 centimeters at the end of the day at high altitudes.
Snowfall is also expected, although less intense, in the Central and Iberian systems, with the probability of exceeding five centimeters.
The snowfalls could also affect lower areas in the south of Castilla y León and northeast of Castilla La Mancha and, occasionally, in the Community of Madrid.
The decrease in temperatures will take place mainly in the
northern half of the peninsula,
where it will be noticeable in large areas, the prediction announces.
Tuesday 23 will be "the peak day of the episode", because a shift to the southeast of the areas where the snowfall will be more intense is expected.
In this way, the largest accumulations are expected in the Iberian system, especially in the eastern areas of Castilla-La Mancha, Teruel, western Zaragoza, Soria and La Rioja, as well as in the central Pyrenees.
It will continue to snow in the Cantabrian Mountains and the Central System, where the highest intensities move towards the east of the area.
It is likely that on Tuesday they will exceed 20 centimeters in thickness in the Iberian system, as well as in the high areas of the central Pyrenees.
Intense and persistent rainfall
is also expected
in the Ebro valley and eastern Catalonia, which will be accompanied by a storm.
The drop in temperatures that began on Monday in the north and center, will extend to the rest of the Peninsula.
