The Madeira archipelago has been under a red weather warning due to heavy rain.

Most of mainland Portugal is also under a yellow weather warning today due to the freezing temperatures currently sweeping the country and temperatures are forecast to drop further over coming days.

The Portuguese IPMA Met Office says it is possible snow could occur in the Algarve and in Alentejo, in the Serra de São Mamede and Serra de Fóia areas.

First, it seems that everyone who died recently did so from the virus. Now there's been an autopsy done on a health worker who died after being vaccinated and - what a surprise!!!! - it was nothing to do with the vaccine. But the real cause of death is subject to some weird D notice so really I just finish up asking myself how stupid the government thinks we are.
