After for the time, from Sunday the intense heat to Spain returns, so much that the State Meteorology Agency (Aemet) has already decreed this Thursday that the conditions of intensity, extension and duration are met to talk about. It will be the second wave of summer, and will cover, at least, from Sunday to Wednesday. And it will be a powerful episode, since the air masses that will fly over Spain “will be”, according to the agency, which has advanced that throughout the day it will issue a special notice with more details.
🌡⬆️ Intense heat from Sunday in most of Spain. It is likely to persist for several days.
→ The air masses that will fly over our country will be up to 10 ° C warmer than normal.

Temperatures began to rise on Wednesday, but the thermal ascent ”will be more notable on Sunday and Monday, days in which heat will be very intense in most of Spain,” explains Rubén del Campo, spokesman for the AEMET. Thus, the 35 ° will be exceeded in the Ebro Valley, North and South Plateau of Galicia, with 38 ° or more in large areas of southern Galicia, central and southern peninsular area already on Monday. In the valleys of Guadalquivir and the Guadiana they could even exceed 42 °. These high temperatures will be higher in about 5 to 10 ° to the normal ones, especially in the western half of the Peninsula, and are expected to continue until mid -week.
It is being a hard summer, although with some fresh periods, the meteorologist is taking stock. “To begin with, June was extraordinarily warm, in fact it was of the entire historical series because until now no month had been 3.6 degrees warmer than normal,” he says.
Julio has had, on the other hand, two different parts: a first fortnight with temperatures clearly above normal and a second with soft, even cold temperatures, due to the arrival of vaguadas, cold air masses, which have refreshed the environment. In the absence of processing the data of recent days, it seems that “it will be qualified as warm” by the Aemet, but not extraordinarily warm as June.
And August also begins strong, with heat wave and, the temperatures will remain above the normal average in practically all of Spain until the end of the month, but these predictions in the long term can vary and much. As for the rains, some storms are expected inside, which can be strong, but it seems that rainfall will be around the usual in August, that is, scarce in most of Spain.
