Andorra la Vella, December 6th, 2024 at 11:15 AM
The Meteorological Service of Andorra has activated an early warning for heavy snowfall and strong winds throughout the country, starting from Saturday afternoon and lasting until Monday.
According to the latest weather forecasts, a cold front is expected to enter Andorra from the north, bringing with it significant amounts of snow. The snowfall is predicted to be particularly heavy in the northern and eastern regions of the country, with accumulations of up to 50 centimeters expected in some areas.
In addition to the snowfall, strong winds are also expected, with gusts reaching speeds of up to 100 kilometers per hour. The strongest winds are likely to occur in high-altitude areas, including mountain passes and peaks.
The early warning issued by the Meteorological Service urges residents and visitors to take necessary precautions, including:
- Staying indoors as much as possible
- Avoiding driving if possible
- Securing loose objects that could be blown away by the wind
- Staying informed about weather updates and road conditions
The authorities responsible for road maintenance and snow removal have already begun preparing for the expected snowfall. However, due to the significant amount of snow that is forecast, some roads may become impassable, and delays and closures are likely.
Residents and visitors are advised to monitor the latest weather forecasts and road conditions, and to adjust their travel plans accordingly. They are also urged to be prepared for power outages and other disruptions that may occur as a result of the heavy snow and strong winds.
The Meteorological Service will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as needed.
