The month of February kicks off with the arrival of a new series of Atlantic storms, continuing the winter trend of previous weeks, bringing generalized rain and wind warnings across much of Spain. The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) has activated warnings for accumulated rainfall, adverse coastal phenomena, hurricane-force winds, and thaw in various parts of the country.
For Monday, an active front is expected to bring a rainy day across most of the peninsular territory. Rainfall will be particularly heavy in the western Peninsula, southern Galicia, the Aragonese Pyrenees, and Andalusia. In Catalonia, the Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya has activated yellow and orange wind warnings for several Pyrenean regions, although general rainfall is expected without major incidents.
The main risk of this day will be the thaw given the possibility of rain falling on accumulated snow from previous days, causing rivers to flow even more heavily than usual.
Unstable weather will continue on Tuesday across the west and center of the Peninsula, but the Mediterranean coast, including Catalonia, is expected to enjoy clear skies and sunshine. Wednesday is forecast to be the most complicated day of the week, with the arrival of a new, highly active front bringing widespread and abundant precipitation, especially in Galicia and Andalusia, increasing the risk of thaw.
