In a year of skyrocketing thermometers and widespread drought, the news of these last few days is the the return of the rains and that the cold is the one that touches for these dates It already suggests how extremely unusual for meteorological purposes 2022 has been.
Closing a weekend where the frigid temperatures have placed us in the natural average of a month of December, the beginning of next week will emphasize this situation of meteorological instability. The Meteorology Statal Agency (aemet), has warned that the Efraín storm continues to approach the Peninsula and therefore the rainfall will continue throughout Spain.
Thus, we will be able to witness its first effects the same Monday afternoon in which a more active front than the one on Sunday will sweep Catalonia with rain of moderate intensity, although less intense than those expected in the western and southern third of the peninsula, and placing the snow level in the Pyrenees between 1,000 and 1,500 meters with the forecast of reaching up to 20 centimeters. And despite a timid rise in temperatures, the sensation of rigorous cold will continue to be present.
The week will begin with the passage of some frontal systems that, in addition to wearing a precipitation mask, will increase the temperature. pic.twitter.com/cTtBepE7Ny

Truce for Wednesday
Either Tuesday will be safe from precipitation although they will be weaker and more scattered. Even so, very probable in the southern third and the western regions of Catalonia and not at all ruled out in the central and pre-coastal coast. Unlike the previous day, the thermometers will rebound more decidedly, and it is already possible that in the central hours of the day in the metropolitan area of Catalonia the thermometers comfortably exceed 10ºC, bordering on 15º. Still, bland mornings and afternoons.
The Wednesday we will have a truce both in the thermometers -without variations, and in the sky -with no forecast of rain and with the sun peeking out more decidedly on a day of variable cloudiness.

And for him Thursday, another disturbance will bring with it the return of rainfall and a new thermal drop that, even so, will not be as pronounced as that of this same weekend.
Facing the last days of the week, always bearing in mind that the weather models are losing reliability with longer-term forecasts, it is that we would have a truce without the umbrella being the protagonist, but the scarf and the coat.
