Overview
- Argentina’s meteorological service (SMN) kept yellow alerts in effect for thunderstorms across Mendoza, western La Pampa, Río Negro and Neuquén with frequent lightning, possible hail, gusts near 60 km/h and 10–30 mm of rain in short periods.
- Separate SMN yellow alerts cover strong southwest winds in southern Santa Cruz and the east coast of Tierra del Fuego, where sustained winds of 45–55 km/h could produce gusts exceeding 80 km/h.
- SMN safety guidance urges residents to avoid outdoor activity during storms, secure loose items, keep drainage clear, stay away from trees and power poles, and prepare an emergency kit.
- In Galicia, AEMET-based local forecasts show very high afternoon and evening rain probabilities on Nov. 9—often 90–100%—with generally light accumulations of about 0.1–3 mm and occasional thunderstorms.
- Updated Nov. 10 outlooks indicate continued unsettled weather in towns such as A Estrada, including early-morning downpours of up to roughly 6 l/m², persistent showers through the day and southerly gusts reaching the upper 30s km/h range.
