Weather situation in the province of Tarragona
Sky with thin clouds and localized fog
The sky during the early hours of the day presents a layer of thin clouds that moderate the intensity of the sun. In addition, at the southern tip, where the maritime influence is more evident, occasional low fog appears affecting specific areas without covering the entire region.
Factors explaining the presence of fog
The isolated fog is generated by the combination of residual humidity from the night and the relative coolness of this morning. This situation is typical in areas close to the coast, where the interaction between land and sea causes local variations in temperature and humidity.
