El Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya (SMC) ha emitido una alerta por “peligro máximo” (5 sobre 6) por lluvias muy intensas (más de 200 l/m2 en solo 24 horas) en diez comarcas a partir de las 18 h de esta tarde y hasta las 00 h de la media noche. La comarcas son el Alt y Baix Empordà, Garrotxa, Pla de l’Estany, Gironès, Vallès Oriental y Occidental, La Selva, Maresme y el Baix Llobregat. La Aemet también advierte de “peligro extraordinario” para las provincias de Barcelona y Girona.

En concreto, la posibilidad de precipitaciones que acumulen más de 40 l/m2 en 30 minutos es máxima, de 6 sobre 6, mientras que la acumulación de lluvia de 90 mm en 3 horas es también en los niveles máximos, de 5 sobre 6.

El SMC advierte que los chubascos irán acompañados localmente de tormentas y que serán posibles los fenómenos de tiempo violento: rachas muy fuertes de viento, mangas marinas y tornados.

A su vez, vaticina un peligro alto por lluvias intensas en otras siete comarcas: Ripollès, Osona, Alt y Baix Penedès, Alt y Baix Camp y el Tarragonès.

Por su parte, la Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (Aemet) emite idénticos avisos que el SMC. Advierte de lluvias torrenciales en las zonas de Barcelona y Girona donde se pueden superar, a partir de esta tarde, los 90 l/m2 en una hora y 200 l/m2 en menos de seis horas.

Avisa de una situación muy adversa (peligro extraordinario) la noche del sábado y primera mitad del domingo con posibles inundaciones y crecidas.

The Aneto glacier will lose up to two meters of thickness in 2026 according to experts

The Aneto glacier, the roof of the Pyrenees, has lost approximately two meters of thickness in 2026, according to researcher Ignacio López-Moreno, who points out that in the last two decades the annual loss was one meter, exceeding three meters in 2022 and 2023. Montaña Segura recommends from 2022 to use the alternative route of the Salterillo lake to avoid dangers in the Portillones, where black ice prevents the safe use of crampons. Experts such as Ixeia Vidaller highlight that in 41 years the glacierized area has decreased by 64.7% and the average length by 30.5 meters, attributing the decline to global warming and the degradation of permafrost, which also affects routes such as the classic Mont Blanc route.
