Spain Faces Dangerous Heatwave

Published: 2024-07-26

Spain is currently experiencing a significant heatwave, with temperatures soaring above 40°C in various regions.

This extreme weather has led to tropical nights and dust storms, raising health concerns, especially for those with respiratory issues.

While a slight cooling is expected over the weekend, temperatures are predicted to rise again next week.

The Agency for Meteorology (AEMET) warns of potential dry storms and strong winds, which could lead to dangerous conditions, including wildfires.

The situation is reminiscent of the severe weather that impacted the Medusa Festival in 2022, highlighting the risks associated with such heatwaves.

Residents are advised to stay alert and take precautions against the heat and associated weather phenomena.
