In mainland Portugal, the IPMA has issued a yellow alert for 14 districts, including Aveiro, Porto, and Lisbon, due to risks of heavy showers, thunderstorms, hail, and wind gusts reaching up to 90 km/h. In the Viseu region, strong winds have already caused more than ten trees to fall.
In France, severe weather is expected, with warnings for violent thunderstorms, hail, and potential tornadoes in several regions. In the department of Gers and Lot-et-Garonne, intense rainfall and powerful gusts of up to 120 km/h are possible.
