Storm Kristin was a compact, catastrophic and record-breaking extratropical cyclone that severely impacted Portugal, as well as parts of the Mediterranean and Southeastern Europe in late January 2026. Storm Kristin was the twenty-sixth storm of the 2025-26 European windstorm season, and the eleventh to be named by the south-western naming group, which consists of France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, and Luxembourg. Kristin was named by the IPMA on January 27, as a significant impact was forecasted. [7]

Kristin achieved record-breaking status by rapidly intensifying just before striking the Leiria district, becoming Portugal’s strongest on record. Kristin made landfall at peak intensity in the Leiria district, which resulted in extremely intense winds in multiple Portuguese districts. By exceeding the wind speeds of both Cyclone Xola in 2009 and Hurricane Leslie in 2018, the storm caused catastrophic damage. The extreme wind gusts of more than 200 km/h are attributed to a probable sting jet that developed as the system made landfall.[8] Before disappearing, Kristin also severely affected Spain and caused heavy precipitation in Italy and Greece.

Kristin especially affected the Portuguese districts of Leiria, Coimbra, and Santarém, but also affected other districts in Portugal such as Lisbon. After moving through Portugal, Kristin also affected Spain severely. Around 1,000,000 customers in Portugal were without power, according to E-Redes. [9] Approximately 170,000 customers experienced power outages in Andalusia. Almost 2,000 injuries were reported in Portugal, most of them got injured indirectly as a result of cleaning and reconstruction operations or misusage of generators. Furthermore, 13 deaths were attributed to Kristin in Portugal, seven direct and six indirect. One death and 5 injuries were reported in Spain. Estimated monetary losses in Portugal are more than €4 billion, which is more than 1% of the country's GDP, making Kristin the most damaging storm on record for Portugal. [10] Initial government estimates indicate losses of €1.2 billion in Spain, bringing the total amount of losses by Kristin to more than €5.2 billion.

Kristin's successor, storm Leonardo, was responsible for causing major floodings in parts of Portugal, which exacerbated the impact of Kristin. [11]

Storm name

On January 27, the IPMA used the name "Kristin" for the twenty-sixth storm of the 2025-26 European windstorm season and the eleventh storm to be named by the south-western naming group, as red warnings were issued for parts of Portugal. Kristin is a Scandinavian name and its meanings are "Christian" or "follower of Christ". [12][13]

Meteorological history

At the end of January 2026, there was a persistent anticyclonic blocking between Greenland and Scandinavia, which resulted in the polar jet descending in latitude, resulting in a very favorable configuration for the strong development of low-pressure areas. Under influence of storm Joseph, also named Marilu by the FUB, a secondary low formed. This secondary low was named Kristin by the IPMA, as a significant impact was forecasted for parts of Portugal.

Enabled by very dynamic and favorable atmospheric conditions, Kristin rapidly intensified in the night before it made landfall. [14] During its explosive cyclogenesis, Kristin deepened to a minimum atmospheric pressure of 975 hPa. In the hours before Kristin made landfall in the Leiria district, the storm also developed a sting jet, which is a rare phenomenon that exclusively happens in extratropical cyclones with a warm core.[15]

Around 4:45 AM, Kristin made landfall as an extremely powerful storm, with gusts exceeding 200 km/h in some parts of the Leiria and Coimbra districts. In Soure, which is a municipality in the Coimbra district, a gust of 208.8 km/h has been measured, exceeding the previous record of 176.4 km/h by Leslie in 2018. Unofficially, a gust of 238 km/h has been measured in Lavos, which is also a parish in the Coimbra district. The Monte Real Air Base, which is located in the Leiria district, reported a gust of 178 km/h before the anemometer got damaged. The Leiria aerodrome measured a gust of 156.2 km/h, according to the IPMA. Lisbon measured a peak gust of 115 km/h.[16] Velocity radar imagery are indicative of wind speeds in excess of 60 m/s (>216 km/h) at a height of slightly above 600 meters at Kristin's peak intensity in the Leiria district. After making landfall, Kristin quickly moved over Portugal and weakened.

After moving through Portugal, Kristin caused strong winds and excessive precipitation in Spain. Gusts of 150.5 km/h were recorded in Benizalón, which is one of the strongest gusts ever recorded in Almería, alongside with gusts up to 131 km/h in Carboneras, 118 km/h in Laujar de Andarax, 116.3 km/h in the Calar Alto mountains, 113.8 km/h in Albox, and 111 km/h in Garuccha.[17] A maximum gust of 108 km/h was measured in Cáceres.[18] Madrid experienced snow, which happens a couple times per year.[19]

Effect of climate change

According to a research conducted by Manning et al. (2018), the frequency of extreme windstorms increases with 25-35% as a result of climate change. The main cause is the increased contribution of storms that develop a sting jet as a result of the global warming. [20] Kristin had a sting jet, which was responsible for its intensity, according to the IPMA.[21] Global warming also alters large-scale atmospheric circulations, which contributes to environments being more favorable for rapid cyclogenesis and persistent cyclonic influences.[22]

Warnings and preparation

Portugal

The IPMA issued widespread red warnings on January 27 for the northern and central districts, as gusts up to 140 km/h and an extremely rough sea was forecasted. The IPMA also warned that the impact could be catastrophic. [23]

The National Emergency and Civil Protection Authority in Portugal elevated the country to Level 4 (Maximum State of Readiness) in the 24 hours prior to landfall, the highest possible tier of mobilisation. The sandbars in the northern zone were closed and the entrance to Viano de Castelo was restricted. [24] A warning SMS was sent to parts of the country on January 27 by the National Emergency and Civil Protection Authority. [25] The IPMA advised everyone to stay at home during Kristin, to keep their blinds closed, and to protect structures. [26] On January 27, the Civil Protection agency of Torres Vedras ordered the closure of all schools and advised everyone to not leave home unless necessary. [27] Local authorities closed the access to the Sintra mountain range on January 27 due to Kristin. [28]

Spain

AEMET issued a rare red alert for the interior of Pontevedra (torrential rain >120mm) and parts of the southeast (Almanzora Valley/Almería) for hurricane-force gusts. Orange and yellow alerts covered the Spanish interior for gusts up to 100 km/h, while coastal regions braced for 8-meter waves along the Atlantic. Warnings were issued for the northern plateau (altitudes as low as 600m), threatening major transport arteries like the A-1 and A-6 motorways.[29]

Italy and Greece

The Italian Civil Protection issued orange alerts for Lazio, Sardinia, and Molise, citing high-speed winds and hydrogeological risks. Red alerts for avalanches were active in the Western Alps. Though the storm was named by IPMA, Greece issued an orange warning for Western Greece and the Aegean, forecasting intense thunderstorms and gale-force winds (9 Beaufort). Much of Southern Italy remained under a State of Emergency due to the compounded risk from the previous Storm Harry, which had already destabilized terrain in Niscemi, Sicily.[30]

Kristin made landfall as an extremely powerful storm in the Leiria district in the night of January 28, 2026. In Portugal, Storm Kristin was officially recognized as a historic and catastrophic event, with wind gusts reaching an unprecedented 208.8 km/h in the Coimbra region and unofficially 238 km/h in the Leiria district, surpassing records held by Hurricane Leslie. The IPMA also measured a gust of 178 km/h at the Monte Real air base before the monitoring equipment got destroyed by the storm.[31] The storm claimed six lives across the country, with fatalities caused by falling trees, structural collapses, and a tragic incident in the Algarve where a woman was swept away by a flooding stream. Another seven people died indirectly, as a result of recovery and cleaning operations or carbon monoxide poisoning by misusage of generators, bringing the total amount of deaths by Kristin in Portugal to 13. One of the seven indirect deaths is an employee of E-Redes, who got electrocuted while repairing electrical structures in Leiria. [32] According to Economy Minister Manuel Castro Almeida, Kristin caused a very significant shock to the country's economy and the direct costs of Kristin exceeds €4 billion, which surpasses the €120 million of damage caused by Leslie in 2018. [10] At the peak of the storm, nearly one million people—approximately 10% of the population—were left without power, while the district of Leiria was described as "unrecognisable" following a direct hit that destroyed the municipal stadium and severely damaged the Monte Real air base, including parts of the F-16 fighter fleet.[33][34] Some parishes and municipalities, especially in the Leiria, Coimbra, and Santarém districts, lost all communication.
