Two storm systems explained New DANA rain forecast

Oct 5

In the complete weather presentation, Mónica López distinguishes the Mediterranean convective storms since Thursday from a separate western DANA. She explains that warm sea water helped organize rotating storm systems, including Monday's heavy rain in Granollers, giving them the appearance of tropical cyclones; she does not confirm a named medicane. The latest system is moving east and remains under observation. She then describes cold upper-level air over western Spain and forecasts storms as that DANA advances east on Tuesday, orange warnings in northern areas, rain patterns and temperature changes, including later cold nights. These forecasts are kept separate from observed flooding and from the earlier Mediterranean system.

On October 5 RTVE meteorologist Mónica López describes a DANA over western Spain already generating storms and forecasts further rain as it moves east on October 6. She discusses orange warnings in northern areas, national rain patterns and temperature changes, including later cold nights. She expressly distinguishes the next Catalan rain from the warm-sea-driven Mediterranean storms of the weekend and Monday. The outlook is a dated public forecast; its predicted conditions are not recorded as completed impacts.
