- An anticyclone in mid‑levels of the atmosphere is producing extreme daytime heat in northwest Mexico with forecast pockets above 45 °C while the Yucatán Peninsula faces very high temperatures near 42 °C and afternoon chubascos.
- In Mendoza province recent intense cordillera snowfall forced the Paso Internacional Cristo Redentor to remain closed and left hundreds of trucks stranded on Ruta Nacional 7 as crews continue snow‑clearance and safety checks.
- Local forecasts from Spain’s AEMET for Galicia predict mostly cloudy skies and light to moderate rain for several municipalities on Tuesday, part of the same broad pattern of unsettled weather reported across regions.
