The accesses to the Serra da Estrela mountain range were closed at around 9:15 pm this Friday, namely the Piornos/Torre and Torre/Lagoa Comprida sections.
According to information from the Covilhã Municipal Civil Protection, the origin of the traffic cut in these sections is the snowfall and the adverse weather conditions.
When consulting the live cameras at the ski resort, it is possible to see the snowfall.
It should be noted that the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA) has placed the Beira Interior region under a yellow warning due to the forecast of snowfall. The warning has been in effect since 9:00 pm today, the 26th, until 12:00 pm tomorrow, the 27th.
