Strong wind leads IPMA to extend yellow warning to the entire island of Madeira

In addition to the yellow warning issued yesterday for maritime unrest on the north coast of Madeira, to be in effect from 3 pm until Wednesday morning (3:00 am), the Portuguese Institute for the Sea and the Atmosphere (IPMA) also issued today yellow warning for the other two sectors of Madeira – South coast and mountain regions – in this case because of the strong wind that is expected tomorrow afternoon. The forecast of gusts up to 75 km / h on the south coast and up to 100 km / h in the mountains, between 2 pm and 9 pm on Wednesday, motivate the IPMA ‘alert’.
