  Storm Bruna, which forecasters have been warning about all week, has already reached Madeira and will hit the mainland on Sunday, 8 November. The first rain is expected from midday in the south, starting with the Algarve, and by evening it will have spread across the centre. From Monday to Wednesday, 9–⁠11 November, the heaviest rain will fall in the north and centre, especially on the coast in the districts of Porto and Aveiro. According to Meteored's forecast, it will not dry out until the weekend of 14–⁠15 November. Geographer André Frade told SIC Notícias that some places could get as much rain in a single week as they normally get in the whole of November.

  The National Authority for Emergencies and Civil Protection (ANEPC) has issued a public warning: flooding, landslides, rockfalls, water on the roads, falling trees and loose structures are all possible, and the seafront will be dangerous. It advises preparing in advance: clear gutters and drains of rubbish, move your car away from places that usually flood, bring in or tie down anything on balconies and windowsills, and close shutters and windows on the windward side. Do not walk or drive through flooded streets: there may be potholes and open manholes under the water. Slow down, as cars skid easily on wet roads.

  On Friday, 6 November, during the parliamentary debate on the 2027 budget, the government revealed how much pensions will rise in January. Pensions of up to two IAS, or up to €1,074.26 a month, will go up by 3.3% according to the government's estimate; these account for about 90% of all pensions in the country (Observador). The IAS is a social index used to calculate many benefits and their income thresholds; in 2027 it will also rise by 3.3%, to about €555.

  Pensions from €1,074 to €3,223 will rise exactly in line with inflation, by 2.79%, and higher ones by less. With a 3.3% rise, a €1,000 pension becomes €1,033. These figures are based on current inflation: provisional figures will come at the end of November and final ones in mid-December, when the statistics institute INE calculates inflation for November.
