The anticyclone that runs through the Peninsula ensures stability this weekend throughout the Peninsula and in the Canary Islands, with temperatures more typical of spring than midwinter. But the rains will finally arrive next week, the AEMET (State Meteorological Agency) has anticipated. And there will be generous rains, according to the forecast:
Today's report already announced that next Wednesday clear skies are expected to give way to a predominance of cloudy or overcast skies and practically widespread precipitation. From Thursday the 8th to Sunday the 11th, very significant accumulations are expected on the Atlantic side of the peninsula, somewhat less important on the Mediterranean and Canary Islands side, the agency's tweet states.
The arrival of this Atlantic front in the west of the peninsula, therefore, could leave heavy rains in Galicia, irrigating the entire western half of the peninsula on Friday. In the last 24 hours, rainfall has been restricted to the area of the Basque Country and northern Navarra, where it has been weak and scattered, and it has frozen in areas of the Cantabrian mountains, León, Palencia, southern Aragon and eastern Castile. Mancha, as well as in the Betic mountain ranges, according to Aemet spokesperson, Cayetano Torres.
