A new low pressure system brings heavy rains that threaten flooding in several areas of Spain in the coming days.
Arab Weather - Advanced weather maps at the Arab Weather Regional Center show the growing influence of the Azores high pressure system over the waters of the eastern Atlantic Ocean, reaching northwestern Europe, causing a cold air mass accompanying an upper air depression to rush from the north towards the south, separating from the general jet stream circulation, and crossing Spain starting Tuesday evening, bringing very heavy rains that threaten the risks of torrents and floods.
A low pressure system with high atmospheric activity will affect Spain in the coming days
In detail, weather experts at the Arab Weather Center reported that as a result of the undulation of the polar jet stream, a cold air mass is rushing towards southern Europe. A highly effective low pressure system is forming, accompanied by heavy thunderstorms. As a result of the change in the shape of the weather systems, the upper low pressure system has separated from the general circulation of the jet stream, leading to the formation of a cut-off low pressure system that will remain in place for several days, resulting in heavy rains and severe thunderstorms towards Spain starting Tuesday.
This type of weather condition is also accompanied by strong upward air currents, which leads to exceptional hailstorms accompanied by large hailstones, which cause damage to public property.
Heavy rains will be brought by the weather system to Spain in the coming days
As cold air passes over the warming surface of the Mediterranean Sea, and tropical humidity spreads, weather activity intensifies in southern Europe, particularly Spain. High-altitude thunderclouds are formed, accompanied by heavy rains, including the capital Madrid and the city of Barcelona.
The weather system is expected to bring heavy rainfall amounts ranging between 200 and 300 mm, which increases the risk of flash floods, landslides and flooding, especially after the soil became saturated with water as a result of the recent heavy rains.
And God knows best.
