Hello all:

During today and tomorrow, there will be an "explosive cyglogenesis" (does this expression even exist in English?) affeting the NW part of the Peninsula, specially Galicia and León. This means that heavy rain and strong winds are expected (by strong I mean winds of up to 100 km/h in some zones).

For those pilgrims that are on the road, please beware.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.

there is already a thread going on this.....a "explosive cyglogenesis "otherwise well known as a "weather bomb " happens from time to time.......more so in the tropics than Europe.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
