Spain begins February with active weather warnings from the national meteorological agency, Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (AEMET), as unsettled conditions persist following recent Atlantic storm systems.
The most intense phases of the weekend’s storms have eased. However, AEMET continues to list advisories for wind, coastal hazards, and showers in several regions as of Sunday morning.
The meteorological agency’s public warnings page shows alerts stretching from the northern coasts down through parts of the peninsula, with gusty winds and combined seas expected, particularly in coastal zones.
Local authorities and emergency services are urging residents and visitors to keep informed, especially if planning outdoor activities or travel. Coastal areas can experience strong gusts and rough seas even when rainfall is lighter.
Forecast maps and advisory details can be consulted directly via AEMET’s live warnings platform:
What to expect today
Wind and coastal waves
There are ongoing alerts for hazardous coastal conditions and offshore winds, with gusts that can impact light structures and travel.
Showers and cloud
Clouds and scattered showers are forecast across broad parts of the country, even where formal warnings aren’t in place.
Rain returning this week
Official forecasts suggest a continuation of Atlantic frontal systems into the first week of February. This will mean more rain and wind events are likely after Sunday.
AEMET warns that while extreme episodes have momentarily subsided, the pattern of unsettled weather is expected to continue due to successive low-pressure systems reaching Spanish latitudes.
