Yellow alert: when will the polar mass reach the Marina Alta?
And again the weather looks unstable for next weekend. so much that The State Meteorological Agency has already activated the yellow alert on the north coast of Alicante due to rain.
The meteorological spring will start with a mass of cold air that will cross the country from northwest to southeast for the next few hours. Although for today, Wednesday, March 2, the temperatures will be high in the region due to the west wind, from Thursday the drop will be notable.
However, what worries the most is the rain. Everything seems to indicate that rainfall could reach the Marina Alta from Thursday afternoon although, above all, in the early hours of Friday. Which will also drop temperatures to winter levels.
For this reason, the AEMET yesterday announced a significant weather change for the peninsula with the passage of an active cold front, which will translate into the subsequent formation of a storm that will affect the region.
The trajectory of the front indicates that the forecasts will be correct and will produce in the east of the country locally heavy rain and strong gusts of wind. All this will lead to a maritime storm in the Mediterranean and could leave snow in the mountains.
In this way, the prediction of AEMET for Dénia announces a 100% chance of rain and a drop in temperature that will go from a maximum of 20ºC on Wednesday to 16ºC on Thursday. For its part, the forecast for Xàbia is practically the same, although it indicates less precipitation for the second half of Friday.
