Yesterday April 28, 2025, for reasons that are still unknown Portugal, Spain and France were affected by a blackout of so far unknown dimensions which plunged into chaos the main cities of the three countries and that took more than 15 hours to be completely resolved.
Among the thousands of possible causes, there was one that was not only considered as probable, but was given by some newspapers. The publication of this news was broadly disseminated in RRSS and argued that the Brugon had been caused by a rare and unusual meteorological phenomenon.
Aemet has denied this ‘Bulo’ and has clarified that during yesterday there has been no ‘weird’ phenomenon and much less one that could explain that so wide areas of three different nations will be private, suddenly and simultaneously of electricity.
The blackout was not for a meteorological phenomenon
The State Meteorology Agency (AEMET) said on Tuesday that during the day of Monday, April 28, in the that a generalized blackout occurred that affected the entire peninsula«No unusual weather or atmospheric phenomenon was detected in Spain«.
In a message disseminated on its social networks, the AEMET adds that there were no “sudden variations of temperature” in its network of weather stations. The causes of the blackout are still unknown, which had important consequences on transport and in all citizen activities.
Some international media alluded, citing the Portuguese electric operator, to a phenomenon known as’induced atmospheric vibration ‘to explain the incident, version that was then denied by the same source.
The president of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, attributed the loss of electricity supply to the “sudden disappearance” of 15 gigawatts of power, which account for 60 percent of the electricity supply, at 12:33 pm on Monday, Monday, motivated by something “that specialists have not yet been able to determine, but they will”said.
