The storm will continue during Easter with widespread rain and strong gusts of wind

The situation of instability will continue during Easter with widespread rainfall and strong gusts of wind that will subside on Monday, when the instability is expected to decrease, although cloudy and overcast skies will continue, according to the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet). .

Specifically, this Saturday there will be a predominance of cloudy or overcast skies and widespread showers, more frequent in the afternoon and occasionally accompanied by storms.

They are expected to affect parts of Andalusia from the early hours and could be locally strong and persistent, they could also be persistent in the west of Galicia and the Central system and in the Pyrenees. The snow level will be around 1000-1400 m.

As for temperatures, these will drop in the eastern half and the Balearic Islands, especially during the day. Winds from the south and southwest will predominate, with probable strong gusts in the central hours of the day and more intense in the extreme south and in the Balearic Islands, where very strong gusts could occur at the end of the day.

In the Canary Islands, cloudy intervals will predominate, with weak rainfall to the north and west of the islands, temperatures with few changes and westerly winds with strong intervals and very strong gusts in the high areas of Tenerife.

For Sunday, Aemet expects this instability to continue, with cloudy or overcast skies and widespread rainfall in the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, with the highest amounts expected in the southern half of the peninsula, the Central system, the Pyrenees and western Galicia, tending to lose intensity and will subside in the afternoon. They could be locally strong in parts of Andalusia.

The snow level will be 900-1400 m, so snowfall is expected in the main mountain systems, with more heavy snowfall in the Pyrenees.

Temperatures will not suffer major changes, with a predominance of decreases in maximum temperatures in the eastern half. The wind, from the southwest, will strengthen again, with very strong gusts being probable in the extreme south, the mountains of the eastern half and the Balearic Islands. In the Canary Islands, weak, scattered and occasional rainfall, temperatures with few changes and generally weak wind from the west are not ruled out.

On Monday, instability is likely to decrease this day, although cloudy and overcast skies will continue. Weak and scattered rainfall is expected on the Peninsula, except in western Galicia, where it could be more intense and persistent, and in the Mediterranean area and the Balearic Islands, where it is unlikely.

The snow level will rise to around 1200-1400 m. It is likely that daytime temperatures will rise in the Peninsula and fall in the Balearic Islands. In addition, winds will continue to blow from the southwest and it is likely that there will be some very strong gusts in mountain areas in the north and east of the peninsula, as well as on northwest coasts.

In the Canary Islands, cloudy intervals, without ruling out some weak and dispersed precipitation due to diurnal evolution, temperatures with few changes and light wind with a predominance of breezes.
