The weather this Tuesday will be sunny

in large areas of Spain,

except in the extreme north of the peninsula, where the sky will be covered in clouds and rain is expected.

The prediction of the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) indicates that this Tuesday there will be a change in weather as the anticyclone imposes itself on the peninsula and the Balearic Islands.

However, in the extreme north of the peninsula, cloudy skies will still persist, with weak precipitation moving through the Cantabrian Sea, the Pyrenees and, with the possibility of storms and hail, eastern Catalonia, tending to be slightly cloudy from west to east.

Meanwhile, the Cantabrian coast (Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria and the Basque Country) is today

on yellow alert

(risk for certain activities) due to maritime storms due to the prediction of waves of up to 5 meters as well as very strong winds, according to the predictions of the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet).

On the coast of Galicia the wind will blow at 50 to 61 km/h (force 7) and also in Cantabria and the Basque Country, while on the Asturian coast it will occasionally have intensity of 62 to 74 km/h (force 8) with waves between 4 and 5 meters.

In the extreme north, cloudy skies with weak rainfall will persist, moving through areas such as the Cantabrian Sea and the Pyrenees, with the possibility of storms and hail, but in general the weather will be marked by an anticyclone that will tend to gain prominence in the peninsula and the Balearic Islands.
