No rain, fogs and temperature inversions at least until Thursday

The time anticiclónico, which settled in the Peninsula around the 22 of December, will continue dominating the picture in Spain until at least Thursday of next week, predicts Ruben del Campo, a spokesman for the State Agency of Meteorology (Aemet). Therefore, it will continue the stability, with the absence of rain and wind, the mists, in some cases dense and persistent and until engelantes, thermal inversion —cold in the valleys than in the mountains, where it is normal to do otherwise— and the high levels of pollution in the big cities and industrial areas.

“The highs of winter are very robust and persistent”, reminds the expert, which advances the systems of high-pressure will continue until the Thursday or even beyond. That day, it is not that atisben changes, but there are still many days and the models do not point out anything significantly. The weekend and the first days of the next week there will just be two small fronts, just leave some water in the north end. “There are anticyclone for a while”, sums up The Field.

Between the evening of this Friday and the first few hours of the sabbath will produce “the passage of a cold front very weak, which will leave some rain in Galicia and in the communities cantábricas”. It will blow a wind from the north and northwest, but again will only affect the north. After the passage of the front, “between the sabbath and the Sunday will reinforce the anticyclone,” continued the weatherman. For the horse riding , is not expected to rain at any point of Spain. “There will only be a drizzle, if any, because the probability is not very high, in the area of the Strait and in the morning,” says the meteorologist.

The next week, you repeat the situation. The Monday at night and Tuesdays another small front will sweep Galicia and the Cantabrian sea, which will leave “little thing, four drops”. In the north of the Canary islands, starting on Monday, will enter northeast wind, trade winds, that will accumulate clouds and some light rain. In the rest of the country, the anticyclone was gaining strength.

“From here to Thursday, you are going to keep producing fog banks, which can be persistent and dense in many inland areas, and night frost, which will be extensive,” says Field. What is more likely is that the mists appear in the northern plateau, the Ebro valley and the lowlands of Huesca and Lleida. “This Friday, and the rest of the weekend, as it will blow north wind, the northeast wind, we can raise the banks that took almost a week settled in the valley of the Ebro, except in Lleida and Huesca, which are protected from the wind by the wall of the Pyrenees", he says. However, the mists will return to the Ebro from Monday.

The mists can be engelantes all these days and especially in the valley of the Duero. "This fog is made up of water droplets very small, that are frozen automatically when colliding with the exposed surfaces and accumulates ice, which gives rise to the phenomenon of the cencellada which tinges the trees white, but also danger because it forms sheets of ice on the roads", explains the spokesman of Aemet, which adds that, oddly enough, of these mists, which are clouds called stratus to the ground, it can't rain, but yes it can snow when the temperature is very low.

Of day, the temperatures will gradually rise and will be warm for the season, except in areas where there is fog, where the values do not even reach 5ºC or 6ºC. In the rest of the country, the atmosphere will be warm and at the height of Wednesday, the temperatures will be between five and ten degrees above normal values for mid-winter.
