Spring advances in Catalunya with an unpredictable time that keeps the authorities and neighbors in suspense. After several days of uncertainty about weather conditions, Civil Protection has issued a notice that alerts all citizens to remain attentive to the evolution of a phenomenon that could significantly complicate the next hours. Meteorological maps and models have already confirmed certain worrying indications.
Low alert weekend in Central Catalunya
According to the latest data provided by the Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya (SMC), during this Saturday, especially from noon and until night, intense rains are expected to make an appearance, mainly in central Catalonia.
The level of rainfall could exceed 20 liters per square meter in just 30 minutes, which implies a considerable risk of sudden floods, especially in vulnerable areas.

This exceptional situation will be extended during Sunday and Monday, acquiring a more widespread character. During these days, practically the entire Catalan territory will see active fronts, with rains accompanied by thunderstorms and, punctually, with small hail episodes. Special attention deserves the Pre -Pyrenees and Eastern Pyreneeswhere the effects can be particularly intense due to the orography of the land.
PLA INUNCAT ACTIVATION
Given the seriousness of the prognosis, Civil Protection has decided to activate the plane in alert phase, which will remain in force while this adverse weather situation persists. Although initially the situation would technically correspond to a pre -health, the previous existence of an alert due to scenario 1 of the Emergency Plan in the Rialb dam has led the authorities to raise the level of caution.
The specific situation of Rialb requires constant monitoring, since heavy rains could significantly increase the flow rate to the reservoir, generating added pressure on hydraulic infrastructure.

Strong wind and associated phenomena
In addition to intense rainfall, it is important to highlight the possible appearance of strong wind gusts in various areas of the territory, which could further complicate the situation, demolishing trees or causing specific damage to public and private infrastructure. The distribution of these phenomena will be located but unpredictable, so it is recommended to follow the official updates carefully.
Population recommendations
Faced with this meteorological panorama, Civil Protection recommends that the population of the affected areas avoid unnecessary displacements during critical hours, especially by road or areas near channels and ravines, which could record sudden floods. It is also advisable to review domestic drainage systems, withdraw objects likely to be dragged by water or the wind, and stay permanently informed through official sources.
The alert remains in force and the authorities will continue to offer detailed updates, especially in those areas more sensitive to this rainfall episode. Before any emergency, contact immediately with the 112 emergency telephone is essential for a quick and coordinated response.
With proper precaution and preparation, Catalunya hopes to overcome this adverse meteorological episode without major inconvenience.
