Very strong winds and seven-meter waves: Storm Austen will affect the far north of Spain starting this Friday

The storm system known as Austen is expected to impact the British Isles and northern Europe, with only peripheral effects reaching northern Spain. The weather event is forecast to arrive on Friday, primarily affecting Galicia and the Cantabrian coast.

While the storm will only graze the Spanish territory, the affected coastal regions are expected to experience a significant maritime disturbance. Forecasts indicate the presence of strong winds and waves exceeding 7 meters in height.
