Weather heads-up: strong winds and rain today and tomorrow in Galicia and Leon

Caminofácil · Sep 15, 2015

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.

Sorry, forgot to mention: to follow weather reports in Spain, you can have a look at AEMET's website:

I flew through it tonight and my nerves are still rattling. The man in front of me told his kids the plane couldn't fall down because there were pilgrims on it. I was hoping he was right... And he was, apparently!
