Madrid/Santa Cruz de Tenerife 9 Mar. (Europa Press) –
The Canary Islands are expected to experience overcast skies, which will become clearer in the afternoon. The forecast from the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet) does not dismiss the possibility of light drizzles in the northwest of the islands, primarily in the morning, along with light, locally persistent rainfall in the southeastern areas of the western islands during the afternoon.
Temperatures are expected to remain stable, fluctuating between a minimum of 12 degrees and a maximum of 23 degrees. The wind will blow from the northwest at a gentle to moderate strength, while in the Central Summits of Tenerife, it will be moderate, shifting to the west with strong bursts until midday.
Across the rest of the country, Borrasca Jana will issue yellow alerts for storms and coastal phenomena in three autonomous communities this Monday, March 11.
In Andalusia, the provinces of Seville, Córdoba, Almería, Huelva, Cádiz, Málaga, and Granada, along with the Autonomous City of Ceuta, will face yellow alerts for storms and coastal events.
Meanwhile, the Balearic Islands will activate yellow alerts for rainfall, alongside the Region of Murcia, which will be at risk (yellow) for coastal phenomena.
Among the notable events, AEMET emphasises that significant rainfall is likely in Catalonia, Aragon, Navarra, as well as in Huelva, Cádiz, Sevilla, and Alborán, where it is anticipated that storms will accompany these showers.
As for snowfall with significant accumulations, it is expected in major mountain regions of the northern peninsular half and Sierra Nevada, while strong winds and very intense gusts from the south or west will affect the Balearic Islands, the northern mountains, the western regions of Galicia, and the summits of Tenerife.
Overall, Aemet warns of a continuing instability situation across the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, influenced by Borrasca Jana, which will lead to predominantly cloudy skies or overcast conditions with widespread rainfall that may occasionally be accompanied by storms and hail.
Maximum temperatures will increase in Galicia
Conversely, maximum temperatures are set to rise in Galicia and the northern regions of the Peninsular Mediterranean area, while there will be a decline in the rest of the eastern peninsular half, the Balearic Islands, and Melilla, with no changes anticipated in the Canary Islands.
Minimum temperatures will decrease in the eastern and northeastern parts of the peninsular thirds, with little variation elsewhere, although minor frosts may develop in the main mountainous areas of the northern half and the southeastern peninsula, moderate in the Pyrenees, and possibly occurring locally on the northern plateau.
