Aemet Warns of Extreme Heat in Spain
- Aemet has warned that extreme heat will return to Spain starting Thursday, June 5, with temperatures soaring across central and southern regions.
- This heatwave follows a period of milder weather and stems from a progressive rise in maximum temperatures forecasted by Aemet amid ongoing climate and urban heat island effects.
- Temperatures will exceed 40°C notably in the Guadalquivir valley, Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha, Madrid, and Andalusia, while northern and coastal areas will remain cooler and cloudier.
- Aemet has announced that temperatures will steadily increase, with highs reaching 40°C again, and has advised taking precautions, particularly for the elderly and those most at risk.
- The return of extreme heat suggests increased health risks and highlights Spain's vulnerability, with past summers causing thousands of heat-related deaths and urban tree losses intensifying heat impacts.
