The week will begin with rain and cool weather throughout Spain. However, as it progresses, an anticyclone will impose itself, bringing more warm air and hours of sunshine, favoring a clear rise in temperatures, which will reach or exceed 30-33 degrees, according to the forecast of the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet). .
For this Tuesday, locally heavy or persistent rains are expected in the Catalan Pyrenees, with significant accumulations of snow at high levels. Some showers are not ruled out in the Balearic Islands or eastern Iberia either.
Temperatures will rise in practically the entire country, except on the Mediterranean coast and the Balearic Islands, with values of up to 6 degrees compared to Monday. In Galicia, Ourense and Pontevedra will reach 25 degrees, while Seville will already be around 30 degrees.
Starting on Wednesday, the rains will be limited to the mountains of the northern peninsula and temperatures will rise to 30 degrees in the south and the Canary Islands, according to the agency’s spokesperson, Rubén del Campo. In addition, a good part of the country will exceed 25 degrees.
Starting on Thursday, there will be a new rise in temperatures, more pronounced in the north, where the rise could be up to 6 degrees compared to Wednesday. In the rest, values above 30 degrees in the Guadiana and Guadalquivir valleys and between 28-30 in the center and the rest of the southern half.
This trend will continue during the last days of the week, according to the agency. The maximum temperatures will generally exceed 25 degrees and 30 degrees in the Ebro depression, in the interior of the Mediterranean communities, central areas and in the Guadalquivir and Guadiana.
It is summer heat, with temperatures between 5 and 10 degrees higher than usual for this time of year in large areas of the territory, Del Campo said.
