This is the case of Lleida, where the 9.5 ºC on Sunday midday contrasts with the 25 ºC on Saturday at the same time. Or Vielha, where the 23 ºC on Saturday are far from the less than 5 ºC on Sunday midday (you will find more data on the thermal drop at the end of this information). In a few hours we have gone from this feeling of advanced spring to one more typical of late winter, especially in high mountains, where it will continue to snow during the next few hours. In addition, showers will affect more regions as the hours pass and will affect the eastern half of the country during Sunday night and Monday morning.</p>]]></description>

These high temperature readings were not concentrated only during daytime hours, but it has also been hot at night. Specifically, the night from Thursday to Friday was the one that recorded the highest lows, with the first tropical night of the year in Catalonia (the second earliest since records began). The award for the first tropical night of 2026 goes to Portbou, in Alt Empordà, where the heated tramuntana wind prevented the mercury from dropping below 21.6 °C, values more typical of June or July.</p>]]></description>

The weather will remain spring-like everywhere on this final day of Holy Week and we will enjoy a 'dia de la mona' with temperatures more typical of May than early April. Only some changes are expected at the end of the week, with the approach of a front that could bring showers to the Pyrenees and a slightly cooler atmosphere.</p>]]></description>

With this weather, you can fully enjoy the snowfall that has occurred in the Pyrenees, where in some cases there is more than 2 or 2.5 meters of snow, a thickness significantly higher than usual at the beginning of April. Mid next week, however, new changes could arrive with more atmospheric instability.</p>]]></description>

The mistral and tramontana still left gusts of more than 100 km/h this Thursday in the north of the country, with a hurricane-force gust of 190 km/h recorded in Portbou (Alt Empordà). This Good Friday the wind will continue to blow at the extremes, but it will clearly decrease and will no longer be news. A wind that will finally calm down completely over the weekend. The Azores anticyclone will finally embrace us and absolute calm and radiant sun will prevail everywhere, with no more squalls or precipitation. Temperatures will clearly rise, with increasingly warm midday. All this after the past few days have once again exceeded 100 km/h in the peaks of the Pyrenees and in Empordà, while the last general snowfall in the Pyrenees has left more than half a meter of new snow at the high altitudes of Alt Pirineu and the north face. Freshly fallen snow that will allow for maximum enjoyment of skiing these days.</p>]]></description>

The passage of a new cold front has caused a new snowfall to begin in the Pyrenees at very low altitudes. Furthermore, it has opened the door to a northerly wind that will continue to strengthen, and which throughout this Sunday will cause a storm of strong gusts in many regions, also outside of usual places. The most affected areas will be the Pyrenees, Pre-Pyrenees, regions of Girona, the Ebro, the south of Camp de Tarragona, Castellón, and the Balearic Islands. The gusts will widely exceed 100 or 120 km/h in the most affected areas, and conditions will be especially adverse in the Pyrenees, where the atmosphere will be freezing and the phenomenon of whirlwinds will occur. These are days of high mobility, so maximum caution is advised, especially in mountainous areas and in the northeast. Civil Protection has already activated the alert for the Ventcat plan and the pre-alert for the Neucat plan for this episode,, andthis Saturday afternoon sent an Es-Alert message to the regions at highest risk asking to avoid unnecessary travel and outdoor activities during Sunday.</p>]]></description>

These are some of the effects of the wind that has been affecting northern Spain since early Sunday morning, although the wind has been gradually weakening for several hours. This was confirmed by Civil Protection in a message on social media. In Ripollès, a tree that fell on a high-voltage power line abruptly left 2,900 customers without electricity. Endesa is currently working to remove it. This is not an isolated incident; more than 5,000 customers experienced problems in other areas of Girona due to various issues affecting a total of seven medium-voltage lines. The company "has reinforced its operational teams on the ground, as well as the resources at the control center" to respond to the incidents, which are mainly caused by fallen branches, trees, or other debris on the power lines.</p>]]></description>

The change in weather quickly passed, but this Sunday we'll end the week with strong winds in some areas, and temperatures will gradually try to recover over the coming days. However, the sun will soon reclaim its leading role. </p>]]></description>

But this calm and pleasant weather will not continue into the weekend. A cold front has arrived this Saturday, bringing a significant change in the weather, and above all, a sudden drop in temperatures that will abruptly return us to a wintry feel. Showers will fall in several regions, locally with thunderstorms and hail, and it will snow again in the Pyrenees, with the snow level plummeting. And beware of the north wind, as it will strengthen throughout Saturday, becoming strong or very strong in the far reaches of the country on Sunday. It's a very bad weekend for high-mountain activities, as wind, snow, blizzards, and freezing temperatures are expected.</p>]]></description>

This situation will be practically identical today, with the added factor of more suspended dust brought by a pocket of cold air settling between the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa. This same pocket will bring more showers or light rain as the days go by, with a possible more widespread rain event expected between Thursday and Friday. Therefore, the first week of March, and the first week of the meteorological season, is shaping up to be considerably more eventful than the previous one.</p>]]></description>

We've begun meteorological spring with weather that won't clear up, but won't be particularly turbulent either. Mornings will be mild and middays cool, a far cry from the gentleness of previous days, with no clear trend toward spring-like warming in the coming days. What is looming on the horizon is a pocket of cold air that will settle between the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa, which will bring more suspended air and instability. Depending on its final position, we could even see some widespread rain by midweek, although what seems more likely at the moment is that there will be some scattered showers on Tuesday.</p>]]></description>

But the wind isn't completely gone, and it will return strongly this Monday in some parts of the country. However, no windstorm as intense and widespread as those of previous days is expected. Meteocat has issued a strong wind warning for areas, especially in the central and southern parts of the region, the Ponent, and the higher elevations of the Pyrenees. In most of the country, the sky will be variable, with sunshine combined with intervals of high and mid-level clouds. There will be precipitation in the Pyrenees, and the temperature will rise considerably, with milder conditions at midday and a fairly high snow level. This week, the storms will move further north, but some weakened fronts will brush past us, bringing more wind and further precipitation to the Pyrenees.</p>]]></description>

These are the effects of the new storm. <em>Oriana</em>This Saturday will bring another storm with strong winds to many regions, this time with the mistral and tramontana winds. The strongest gusts are expected in the Ebro Valley, the Camp de Tarragona, Castellón, the Empordà, and the Pyrenees peaks, where blizzard conditions are possible. The wind will be felt across much of the country, including the Barcelona area, although not nearly as intensely as Thursday's storm in this region. This wind will affect Carnival parades in several municipalities, while on the northern slopes of the Pyrenees, the main news will be snowfall. Civil Protection has activated its Ventcat plan and sent alerts to mobile phones in the Terres de l'Ebre and Baix Camp regions, and Meteocat has issued strong wind warnings for many areas, with red alerts in the far south and north. Aemet has even activated a red alert in Castellón, where hurricane-force winds of over 140 km/h are possible. </p>]]></description>

For now, the weather will remain normal for this time of year, and more snow is expected on the southern slopes of the Pyrenees during the day. And in the coming days, the weather will continue to change due to the passage of new storms."</p>]]></description>
