This week, between September and October, begins with a Monday of stable weather in which only precipitation is expected in Galicia, although between Tuesday and Thursday “the influence of low Atlantic pressures will lead to rain in the north of the Peninsula and also in points to the east”, according to Rubén del Campo, spokesperson for the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet), advances. Thus, on Tuesday and Wednesday, a very active front will irrigate the entire northern half, with significant accumulations of water in the communities of Galicia and Asturias. On Thursday, precipitation will move to the east of the peninsula and the Balearic Islands, while anticyclonic stability will return at the weekend, with a predominance of clear skies and rain only on Sunday in Galicia. In thermometers, there will be “temperatures above normal in the west and in the southern half of the peninsula”, with more than 32° in the early afternoon in the Guadalquivir valley and points in the interior of the Valencian Community and Murcia. , while in the rest of the country they will be, in general, the usual ones at this time.
And what happened to the hurricane Isaac, that on Friday he was heading towards Europe? “The still tropical storm, which throughout the day will lose its tropical characteristics to become a mid-latitude storm, it will move towards the northeastwith a trajectory very west, quite far, from the British Isles, and it will weaken, so that it will not affect Spain. There was uncertainty in the trajectories and finally it has taken the route to the northeast,” Del Campo clarifies.
Last weekend started with cold weather and there were even frosts in mountain areas and we stopped on the northern plateau. “It was the case of Rascafría, in the mountains of Madrid, or Morón de Almazán, in the province of Soria, both with -1° minimum on Saturday. That same day, Salamanca airport fell to 0.3°minimum record in that observatory for September,” summarizes Rubén del Campo, Aemet spokesperson, adding that On Sunday the temperatures rose again “and in a notable way”, with 32° in Badajoz and 33° in Seville. The rains were scarce.
This Monday the stable time and there will only be rain in parts of Galicia. “Temperatures are going to rise in practically the entire country, except on the shores of the Cantabrian Sea, and they will exceed 25° in most of the territory. “It will exceed 32° in the Guadalquivir valley,” the expert completes the forecast for the day. On Tuesday, the passage of a front will leave rain in the northern third, which “in Galicia and Asturias may be locally strong and accompanied by storms.” In a weaker way, they will be able to reach other points in the northern half, especially mountainous ones. In the rest of the country the skies will become cloudy, although not a drop will fall. Temperatures “will rise in the Mediterranean and the Cantabrian Sea, but will fall in the rest.” Again, the Guadalquivir and in points in the interior of the Valencian Community and Murcia will reach 32°.

On Wednesday there is still some uncertainty, but the most likely thing is that an Atlantic storm will bring rain to much of the north of the Peninsula. “Precipitation could be intense and accompanied by storms in Galicia and Asturias. It will rain lightly in the central zone and it cannot be ruled out that the rains will extend a little further south, but it does not seem that they will affect either Andalusia or the Balearic Islands,” predicts the Aemet spokesperson, to underline that “strong winds are expected. temperate southern and temperate southwest”, which will, together with abundant cloudiness, cause minimum temperatures to rise. “It is possible that we will even have tropical nights, that is, minimum temperatures above 20° in southern points such as Cádiz or Málaga, while in Seville or Murcia they will exceed 33° in the early afternoon,” says Del Campo. This mild, even hot, environment in the southern half, “will contrast with the cool environment in the northern third, with a maximum of 18° to 20° in cities like Bilbao or Vitoria.”
On Thursday, the rainfall “will move to the east of the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands and there will be showers locally accompanied by storms in parts of the southeast, Catalonia and the Balearic archipelago.” The skies will be “cloudy, but with a lower probability of rain, in the west of the Peninsula, except in Galicia, where they are likely.” Temperatures will fall in the northern and eastern halves and in the Balearic Islands, but tropical nights will return to Andalusia, where 32° will be exceeded one more day in the Guadalquivir valley, as well as in parts of the southeast.
In the final stretch of the week, “it is most likely that anticyclonic weather will predominate again”, with slightly cloudy skies and absence of precipitation except in parts of the Mediterranean on Friday.” On Saturday and Sunday “there will probably be clouds and rain in the extreme northwest.” In the rest, more stable weather and rising temperatures, with a warm atmosphere in the west and in the southern half. “Again, 30° to 32° may be exceeded in points of the southern third, especially the Guadalquivir,” adds the meteorologist.
In the Canary Islands, The first days of the week the trade wind regime will predominatewith clouds in the north of the islands. “Starting on Tuesday, and especially on Wednesday and Thursday, the winds will turn to the east, haze will arrive and there will be a clear rise in temperatures,” says Del Campo, specifying that temperatures may exceed 30° to 32° in large areas. areas of the archipelago and even 34° in the south of Gran Canaria. At the weekend “the trade winds would probably be restored and temperatures would drop until they normalized again,” concludes the Aemet spokesperson.
