14 October 2026 at 15:15

> A weather depression will move across Spain this weekend, bringing heavy rain to the Mediterranean and a sharp drop in temperatures.

A retrograde **DANA** is forecast to reach **Spain** during the weekend of 17 and 18 October 2026, moving from the northeast to the southwest. Meteorological models predict the depression will form between Saturday and Sunday, causing intense rain and storms.

Before the shift, temperatures remain five to ten degrees above the seasonal average, with Sevilla and Badajoz reaching 34C. However, a sharp drop begins Friday in Galicia, with weekend minimums falling to 5C in Avila and 6C in Burgos and Salamanca.

The **Mediterranean** and Balearic Islands face the most significant precipitation, though **Aemet** spokesperson **Ruben del Campo** notes trajectory uncertainty. Heavy showers are expected in Murcia and Almeria, while a front brings rain to the Cantabrian region.
