Short summary
Episodes of intense orographic precipitation in the interior of the Iberian Peninsula have been little studied so far. The relationship with areas of mountain and the analysis of weather indexes make this study interesting. The selected area was Gredos, a broad and high range, and its effects on the spatial distribution of precipitation on the Iberian Peninsula plateau results in a sharp increase in precipitation in the south, followed by a decrease to the north of this range.
