Una lluvia de dudas

Abstract

Easter Week in Cadiz in 2024 will go down in history for its uniqueness. The bad weather, in all its expressions, manifested itself during every day. There were strong winds, sand showers, heavy showers and cold. Spring was conspicuous by its absence and, in spite of everything, some brotherhoods defied the inclemency and went out into the streets, with or without their titular saints. They shortened their itineraries, hurried their processions, or had to remain in the Cathedral... and always to avoid the rain. In the end, we witnessed a very particular Semana Sana, full of weather incidents that marred it, as well as not remembering a week in which it rained every day. Decisions had to be taken to safeguard the human and cultural heritage of the brotherhoods. An experience that was hard to take on board.
