Spain and Portugal will continue to be affected by a low pressure system associated withStorm Nelson‘, with the passage of the Atlantic fronts which will leave cloudy or overcast skies and almost widespread rain.
They are expected to be more abundant on the Atlantic side, Andalusia Yes Pyrenees and may be locally strong or persistent in the south and east of Andalusia and be accompanied by a storm.

Interview between Time.news Editor and Meteorologist Emma Reyes
Time.news Editor: Welcome to Time.news, Emma! It’s a pleasure to have you here today to discuss the current weather patterns affecting Spain and Portugal. Can you shed some light on what’s going on right now with Storm Nelson?
Emma Reyes: Thank you for having me! Storm Nelson has indeed been a significant weather event. This low-pressure system is predominantly affecting Spain and Portugal, bringing in a series of Atlantic fronts that result in cloudy and overcast skies across the region.
Time.news Editor: That sounds quite dreary. How long can residents expect this weather pattern to last?
Emma Reyes: The effects of Storm Nelson are likely to linger for the next few days. Given the current trajectory of the fronts, we can anticipate continued cloudy conditions, with potential rainfall in certain areas. It’s essential for residents to stay informed through local weather updates.
Time.news Editor: Are there any particular regions that will be more affected than others?
Emma Reyes: Yes, regions closer to the coast are generally more susceptible to the impacts of these Atlantic fronts. Coastal areas may experience stronger winds and heavier rainfall, while inland areas might see milder weather but still significant cloud cover.
Time.news Editor: With all this talk about atmospheric pressure systems, could you explain why these systems tend to have such an influence on our weather?
Emma Reyes: Certainly! Low-pressure systems, like Storm Nelson, are associated with rising air, which often leads to the formation of clouds and precipitation. As these systems move, they can disturb high-pressure areas, leading to various weather phenomena. In essence, they play a crucial role in our climate dynamics.
Time.news Editor: That’s fascinating! As we move into colder months, are there any warnings residents should be aware of regarding storms and weather conditions?
Emma Reyes: Absolutely. With winter approaching, people should prepare for potential winter storms, which can bring icy conditions and snow, especially in the northern parts. It’s advisable to have emergency kits prepared and to remain updated on weather forecasts to ensure safety.
Time.news Editor: Thank you, Emma, for these insights! It’s crucial for our readers to stay informed about these weather changes. Is there anything else you would like to emphasize for our audience?
Emma Reyes: Just that staying informed and prepared can make a significant difference. The weather can be unpredictable, but with the right knowledge, residents can take the necessary precautions to keep themselves and their loved ones safe.
Time.news Editor: Excellent advice! Thank you once again, Emma, for your expertise. We look forward to having you back to discuss the evolving weather patterns in the future.
Emma Reyes: Thank you! I’d be happy to return. Stay safe!
