On the other hand, about 480 kilometers scattered on 43 roads had activated the red level, that is, cars can go 30 km / h and winter chains or tires and prohibited the circulation of trucks, buses and articulated vehicles.

In this situation there were 19 mountain ports, three of them from the main network: pajares (N-630), both in the Asturian side and Lions, and Pontoon (N-621) and San Glorio (N-625), in León . The rest belonged to the secondary network.

The snow will appear at relatively low levels of 500 meters in the northern peninsular half, where the temperatures will collapse up to 10 degrees with respect to this Tuesday, all accompanied by a growing winter sensation by intense winds. Only the Canary Islands and the Southeast Peninsular will be freed from adverse time.

This is due to the influence of deep borrasca bar, which suffered an explosive cyclogenesis process and that on Wednesday is on the British Isles. A cold front associated with that disturbance began on Tuesday to cross the peninsula from Northwest to Southeast and will end up doing it on Wednesday.

After the passage of this frontal system, a corridor of wet and cold winds from the northwest between the barrazza bar and the anticyclone of the Azores will be created, and that flow will cause a defendant decline in temperatures, especially from the North Peninsular end.

Therefore, the DGT asked citizens last Monday to come from home to enjoy the bridge in the northern peninsular half that will advance their return if they have to circulate by road before the forecast of snowfall for this Wednesday, because the snow could make it difficult for the snow Circulation not only on secondary roads, but also in high capacity roads.
