The Generalitat Firefighters recorded minimal activity in Central Catalonia during Thursday morning, with only two minor interventions in l'Estany caused by strong winds.

Until 2:00 PM, the region experienced a relatively calm day despite the activation of the Inuncat emergency plan. The only notable incidents were a fallen telephone pole and a rock on the road, both in the town of l'Estany, with no personal injuries reported.
Nationwide, emergency services handled a total of 38 calls between 8:00 AM and 2:00 PM. Most of the activity was concentrated in the North and South Metropolitan regions, which accounted for 29 of these reports.
Civil Protection continues to urge caution, especially in the northeast, where rainfall could exceed 200 liters per square meter within 24 hours. The storm also includes intense sea conditions, with waves over 2.5 meters expected in Alt and Baix Empordà.
