By the Numbers
Spain is going through a difficult process due to the extreme temperatures affecting the summer season. The period, which started with the first heat wave experienced in May before the season began, continued with two major waves engulfing the entire country in June and July. Last week, a red alarm was issued in Catalonia due to extreme temperatures.
While the Mediterranean region is experiencing its third heat wave of the season, thermometers are climbing to dangerous levels again. The temperature rose to 44.4 degrees in Valencia and up to 42.4 degrees in Catalonia. These new record levels clearly reveal the severity of the heat.
The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) warned that there could be a new increase in temperatures starting from the weekend. This rise has the possibility of triggering yet another heat wave in the country. Thus, when the scorching temperatures affecting Spain will end remains uncertain for now.
