Spain Set for First 'Heatwave' of the Year with 40C Forecast in the South
- Spain will experience its first episode of extreme heat this week, with temperatures reaching 40C in the south starting May 29, 2025.
- This rise follows a colder, rainier spring and results from hot air masses from North Africa combined with high pressure and intense sun.
- Many inland cities, including Seville, Córdoba, and Ciudad Real, will see highs above 35C and tropical nights above 20C, with Andalusia most affected.
- Aemet warned temperatures may be more than 5C above normal, calling this a stable, very warm episode linked to a powerful anticyclone from North Africa.
- Only northern Spain and the Canary Islands will avoid the heat, which is expected to ease after June 1 but keep the first half of June warmer than usual.
