Weekend Storms Sweep Galicia as Spain Braces for Days of Rain and a Sharp Cold Snap

AEMET projects persistent showers for the Valencian Community through Monday followed by a marked temperature drop from Tuesday.

Overview

  • Galician municipalities face a very high likelihood of thunderstorms today, with local forecasts citing near-100% precipitation probabilities at key hours.
  • Southerly winds in parts of Galicia are expected to produce strong gusts, reaching roughly 70–85 km/h in some towns per AEMET-based local bulletins.
  • AEMET expects rain to return across much of the Valencian Community from Saturday and persist into Monday, generally with modest accumulations.
  • From Tuesday, a cold-air mass is forecast to drive temperatures below seasonal norms with inland frosts and lower daytime highs, while broader precipitation remains limited outside the Cantabrian and Balearic areas.
  • On the U.S.–Mexico border, Calexico and Mexicali authorities advise securing outdoor items and checking drains for potential flooding as rain and cooler conditions move in, noting earlier emergency declarations in September.
