• Scattered thunderstorms broke out across northern and eastern Spain as cooler Atlantic westerlies moved in.
• Galicia municipalities such as Cambados, Tui and Ponteareas face nearly certain afternoon rain with gusts up to 61 km/h following clear mornings.
• Argentina’s SMN maintains yellow and orange warnings for heavy rain and sustained westerly winds of 60–70 km/h with gusts exceeding 120 km/h in Chubut, Santa Cruz and Río Negro.
• Meteorologists attribute the contrasting conditions to Atlantic frontal systems that are moderating Iberian heat while fueling severe weather in southern Argentina.
