Cold Front Triggers Alerts in Argentina as Galicia Expects a Mostly Dry, Cloudy Day

Official forecasts highlight sharply different weekend risks, with storm alerts in Argentina contrasting with a largely dry Galicia.

Overview

  • Argentina’s SMN issued yellow and orange alerts for storms across parts of La Pampa, Mendoza, Río Negro and especially Neuquén, warning of hail, 70–90 km/h gusts and 10–45 mm of rain.
  • In Buenos Aires and the AMBA, a southward front drove a sharp cool-down to 12–21°C, with morning showers possible and a lower chance of rain through the afternoon under mostly cloudy skies.
  • Local outlooks diverge nearby: Rosario was forecast to start foggy, reach about 21°C and face an 89% chance of scattered showers, while Santa Fe expected a dry day near 11–22°C with no precipitation.
  • AEMET-based forecasts for towns across Galicia called for a cloudy Saturday with little or no rain, limited to brief light sprinkles in a few early hours.
  • Looking ahead, Córdoba (Spain) is projected to stay settled until rain probabilities climb from Thursday to a likely wet Friday, while Tucumán (Argentina) warms through the weekend with highs topping 30°C early next week.
