Is it normal for a dana to last so long? No, the current situation, such a long episode like the one that shakes the country and especially the Mediterranean with torrential rains that have left for the moment more than 200 deadis “exceptional, both in duration as well as intensity” of recorded rainfall.
This was indicated by the spokesperson for the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet), Ruben del Campo. Furthermore, he added that “so far there have been between seven and eight days of DANA presence in the peninsular territory, causing intense storms in different areas”.
His statements have continued by stating that “there will be time to “technically analyze its particular characteristics”as well as the causes that have led to its duration being “so long and causing so much rain.” Also for his part, the meteorologist Francisco Martinof Meteoredexplained that DANA is having “a very long duration and it is not normal.”
has been quasi-stationary many days, fixed in the area of the eastern peninsulavery active, and has also been found “with first-class gasoline” which is the Mediterranean, which, being so warm, acts “as a trigger mechanism, like a match“he added.
It is a very intense, very broad, extensive phenomenon, which “occupies a tremendous portion in the Iberian Peninsula exceptional factors of intensity, duration and stagnation”, and whose duration “is not normal”, nor is it normal that it moves “so little”. He has insisted on his exceptional factors of intensity, duration and stagnationIn addition to being a cold drop dynamically very active.
All of this, he said, means “a perfect cocktail, with the fundamental ingredients to generate strong storms on the surface“. He explained that the waters surrounding the peninsula, especially the Mediterranean, at this time of year are “like an open gasoline can.” “We still have to continue maintaining alert although DANA is in its last phase of weakening“, he concluded.
