The weather will be marked by a “progressive and generalized rise” in temperatures with daytime values ??5-10 degrees higher than normal for this time of year, more typical of the summer months, according to the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet). ).
They will be “warm days,” according to the Aemet spokesperson, Rubén del Campo, who has detailed that the highest temperatures will be recorded on Friday and Saturday.
For this Thursday, “the thermal rise” of previous days is expected to continue. It will be more pronounced in the northern half, although it will drop a little in western Andalusia, with daytime temperatures above 25 degrees in large areas of the country and 30 degrees in the Ebro depression, in the interior of the Valencian Community and in the valleys of the Guadiana and of the Guadalquivir.
There will be slightly cloudy skies. Only in the Cantabrian environment, northeastern Galicia, upper Ebro, the Pyrenees and the Strait are intervals of low clouds expected during the first hours of the day, and mists or fog may form in the mountains. In the afternoon, some scattered showers are not ruled out in areas of the Catalan Pyrenees and in Mallorca.
Starting Friday, temperatures will continue to rise, especially at night. During the day, it will reach 30 degrees in the Ebro Valley, in the center of the peninsula and in the southern half of the peninsula. Between 30 and 33 degrees in Toledo, Zaragoza, Seville, Jaén, Huelva, Ciudad Real and Badajoz and even on the shores of the Cantabrian Sea it could be around 28 to 30 degrees that day.
Saturday will be another very hot day, the agency continues. Maximum temperatures will increase on the Mediterranean slope and decrease in the west and the Canary Islands. Temperatures will exceed 30 degrees in the Guadalquivir valley and the middle of the Ebro.
However, starting Sunday, atmospheric instability will increase in the north of the peninsula, with rain and showers in some areas of that sector, although the heat will continue in the southern half.
