Claim that Spain's blackout was caused by rare weather event debunked

The massive blackout across the Iberian Peninsula on Monday, affecting nearly 60 million people, was attributed by a social media message to an atmospheric event linked to extreme temperatures in Spain. Portuguese power grid operator REN denied involvement in circulating this claim, which suggested a "fault in the Spanish electricity grid" caused by "induced atmospheric vibration." However, Spain's weather office confirmed no unusual meteorological phenomena were detected, and the grid operator dismissed the message as unfounded.
