Autumn (now yes) is here

  • The drop in temperatures in recent days has left a totally autumnal stamp on the beaches of Barcelona

  • The maximums this Saturday at the Fabra Observatory (14º) and Raval (17ºC) were their minimums seven days ago

From the short t-shirt winning by an overwhelming majority and the swimsuit and bikini to take a bath among the still brave who remained last weekend, sheltered and huddle on the sand this Saturday, only seven days have passed but an almost complete seasonal change to weather effects.

And it is that if during this month of November a slight decrease in maximum temperatures has begun to be noticed, after an endless ‘summer autumn‘ experienced last October, the same thing did not happen, at least with the same intensity, in terms of the minimum.

But this week, the passage of several fronts (which will continue to affect us in the coming days) have accelerated this transfer of ‘summerIt’s already a classic autumn, the one with the sheathed sweater and jacket and the scarf on hand “just in case”, the one that already indicates that changing your wardrobe is an irremediable decision.

And it is that Barcelona has woken up with a unusual feeling of cold in recent weeksfurther enhanced by the influx of moderate winds from the northeast component.

In order for us to get an idea of ​​the difference between this Saturday and the one just seven days ago, we only have to look at the records of a couple of the stations where the Meteorological Service of Catalonia (SMC) takes his data: in the Fabra Observatory the minimum has remained at 6.7ºC -and the thermal sensation dropped a couple of degrees more due to the incidence of the wind- and in the Raval it has barely been able to scratch 10ºC.

In addition, in the central hours of the day, the thermometer has not skyrocketed, resulting in a comparison of the most striking: the maximum in both stations -14ºC in the Fabra Observatory and 19ºC in the Raval- were the minimums of the previous Saturday.

In short, welcome autumn, hopefully already definitively.
