โ ๏ธ ATTENTION: Do not underestimate Storm #Marta!
The Portuguese people are not being sufficiently warned about whatโs coming. Recent model guidance has been adjusting to newer data and I expect Marta to continue intensifying up until landfall tomorrow.
NOTE: I donโt expect this storm to be as severe as Kristin, but a storm doesnโt 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.
Itโs still unclear exactly what areas will be affected by the worst winds, but itโs 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 whatโs coming, the better.
Ver o Presidente da Cรขmara de Ourรฉm, visivelmente cansado, chorar numa entrevista em directo diz-nos tudo o que precisamos saber acerca do que estรฃo a enfrentar as populaรงรตes das zonas mais afectadas.
E sem pachorra alguma para palhaรงadas.
Sรณ vรฃo ter a verdadeira noรงรฃo do que se estรก a passar em Ourรฉm/ Leiria quando houver rede mรณvel e os locais conseguirem relatar.
ร que nรฃo รฉ sรณ telhados, jรก vi casas que desmoronaram. ร impossรญvel haver tรฃo poucos mortos
@hellorita97 Penso que sรณ Ourรฉm, para jรก, tem comunicaรงรตes e luz, mas sem รกgua. Fรกtima, algumas partes com luz, mas sem comunicaรงรตes e รกgua. Muita destruiรงรฃo pelo concelho fora.. nunca vivi uma noite destas ๐
