.@Grok is coming to Teslas in Europe It can answer almost any question using real-time information & also add/edit navigation destinations to become your personal guide Initially rolling out in – UK – Ireland – Germany – Switzerland – Austria – Italy – France – Portugal – Spain More to come
⚠️Sting Jet possible path: If you're located in Figueira da Foz, Mira or any area between these you are within the sting jet expected impact location, winds can exceed 130km/h with it's arrival. I would give about 1 hour and a half for it to reach land.
STORM MARTA • Friday Morning Update for Portugal and Spain
Marta is our next storm, arriving tomorrow (Saturday). Downpours and thunderstorms remain scattered today but Marta will bring the next wave of widespread significant rainfall and strong winds across Portugal and Spain.
I’m becoming more concerned about the wind aspect as well, with gusts up to 100 km/h looking possible. I’ll be posting regular updates on this situation, stay tuned…
WATCHING MARTA VERY CLOSELY… The possibility exists of another very intense wind scenario close to the center of low pressure tomorrow (Saturday) as I mentioned in my last post. We don’t know exactly how strong this could be, or what part of the coast will be affected.
Nonetheless, these are very worrying trends on higher resolution model guidance. Please stand by for more information today and tomorrow as we track #Marta.
I’m wishing everyone the best from Lisbon.
@ipma_pt Why do we still have only YELLOW warnings for tomorrow in parts of northern Portugal? How will people be prepared for the possibility of significant wind gusts tomorrow with Storm #Marta?
⚠️ ATTENTION: Do not underestimate Storm #Marta!
The Portuguese people are not being sufficiently warned about what’s coming. Recent model guidance has been adjusting to newer data and I expect Marta to continue intensifying up until landfall tomorrow.
NOTE: I don’t expect this storm to be as severe as Kristin, but a storm doesn’t need to be historic to be dangerous. As most of you know, Portugal and Spain remain in a very critical situation with severe flooding unfolding. Marta will not only bring widespread *heavy* rain but the continued intensification suggests a risk of very strong winds.
It’s still unclear exactly what areas will be affected by the worst winds, but it’s reasonable to expect the strongest gusts across central and southern Portugal and also in parts of the north, especially wherever the center of the storm makes landfall. There is a possibility of particularly strong winds in excess of 120-130 km/h near the core of the storm.
Trees and power lines will be more prone to fall with soils continuing to be deeply saturated.
In summary:
Please prepare for widespread disruptive winds and further heavy rainfall exacerbating the ongoing flood crisis.
Thank you for reading and be sure to share this information! The more people that know what’s coming, the better.
A tempestade Kristin destruiu casas aqui em na zona centro.
A Tânia, mãe de duas meninas, perdeu tudo. Casa com 5 anos, ainda a ser paga.

O Pedro esteve ausente das lives nos últimos dias por um motivo que custa explicar. A casa da Tânia foi destruída pela tempestade e, quando isso acontece a alguém, tudo o resto fica em segundo plano. Neste momento, o foco é ajudar a reconstruir um lar e devolver alguma normalidade a quem perdeu tudo de um dia para o outro. Se puderes ajudar, mesmo que seja pouco, faz diferença.
