The content of 2021 snowstorm in Madrid was merged into Storm Filomena on February 20, 2021. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page.

Resplit

Please read WP:FORK before attempting to hold another discussion on this subject. At present, there isn't nearly enough unique content in the article on the impacts to warrant a split into another "Impacts of Storm Filomena in Spain" article. This article is very small at present, and it is nowhere near the readable prose limit. Unless it gets there, an article split should not even be considered. The mentioned example (Katrina) clearly exceeds the readable prose limit if the impacts are all added to the main article, while this is not the case here. And the consensus to merge the two articles was very strong. Any attempts to force another split would be against Wikipedia policy. The article merger was properly performed. Closing this now.

I agree with User:Asqueladd this article has to be resplit regarding the Madrid snowstorm. It was the largest snowfall in Madrid for over a century. There is enough material in Madrid for an article 5 times as long as the one discussing effects elsewhere. There is also precedent on Wikipedia with Hurricane Katrina and Effects of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. I think User:MarioJump83 you have been hasty in merging these two articles. Bad move. --Huasteca (talk) 00:05, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

GAN

@HurricaneCovid: You may need to see the Spanish version of the article regarding this. There's a lot of information you may have been missed. Mario Jump 83! 02:15, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Ok, I'll see what I can find there. This article still needs some work before I can nominate it for GA though. – 🌀Hurricane Covid🌀 _(contribs) 12:42, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Statements attributed to AEMET article are wrong

The article states: "By then, the coldest temperature ever recorded in Iberia was registered at Torremocha de Jiloca, in the Teruel, at −26.5 °C" and cites an article on AEMET. This article does not show this. It states that the low temperature at Torremocha de Jiloca was on the 12th, not the 7th, and that other temperatures were recorded below -30 C. It also does not say anywhere that this is the "coldest temperature ever recorded in Iberia", only a standout among cold temperatures during this event. MFdeS (talk) 01:58, 15 September 2025 (UTC)
