Severe weather is expected to return between Wednesday and Thursday, with the possibility of rain and thunderstorms, according to information from RTP.

The Portuguese Institute of the Sea and the Atmosphere (IPMA) has issued a yellow warning covering the districts of Viseu, Porto, Vila Real, Viana do Castelo, Aveiro, Coimbra, and Braga. This warning will be effective on Wednesday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.

The likelihood of hail is highlighted in the weather alerts, which indicate adverse conditions to be monitored throughout the day.

The districts under a yellow warning should be prepared for weather conditions that could cause disruptions and affect the daily routines of residents.

Forecasts indicate that the rain and thunderstorms could pose risks, especially in areas already affected by unstable weather conditions.

Authorities have advised caution and attention to weather updates to ensure public safety during this period.
