A new weather front will arrive tomorrow, bringing a wintry feel.

This Wednesday the cold weather intensified, with a generally wintry feel and temperatures below average. All this unfolded relatively calmly, as we await the arrival of a weakened Atlantic front this Thursday, which will bring further changes. Cloud cover will return throughout the region, with partly to mostly cloudy skies. Light precipitation is expected in the Pyrenees, but the rest of the country will see virtually no rain. Temperatures will remain relatively stable, with a significant rise expected for the long weekend of the Immaculate Conception, bringing milder afternoons and relatively calm weather.

Thursday: New weather change

The passage of a weakening Atlantic front will increase cloud cover everywhere. It will be a less sunny day, but with little risk of rain. Throughout the day, some light precipitation will arrive in the Pyrenees, especially on the northern slopes, with a snow level around 1,200 m that could drop to 1,000 m by evening. In the rest of the country, a few light showers or a few weak, passing rain showers are possible in the Ponent and Ebro regions during the morning. In the afternoon, this risk will shift towards the northeast. Little rain is expected, and most of the country will remain dry. Some light rain is also possible in the Valencian Community, and the Balearic Islands will see some scattered showers, especially between Mallorca and Menorca.

All this with minimum temperatures rising in the south and west due to cloud cover. Maximum temperatures will fall in Girona and Barcelona, ​​but rise in the rest of the country. Westerly winds will strengthen in the southern half and at higher elevations in the Pyrenees.

Immaculate Conception with calm and less cold

On Friday, the mistral wind will strengthen and blow strongly in the central and southern parts of the country, in the high Pyrenees, and in the northern Alt Empordà region. Some gusts may be strong: caution is advised, especially in high mountain areas. Sunshine will prevail, combined with some intervals of cloud cover. The exception will be on the northern slopes of the Pyrenees, where new precipitation will begin to fall—especially in the early morning and late evening—which may also occur intermittently in the south. Temperatures will begin to rise.

During the weekend and the Immaculate Conception holiday on Monday, the weather will be very pleasant and sunny. No precipitation is expected, making for a very enjoyable few days. Temperatures will rise significantly, both day and night, with milder conditions at midday.
