The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) draws a meteorological scenario for this Wednesday with two well defined faces. On the one hand, the stable environment is strengthened in almost all of Spain thanks to the slightly cloudy or clear skies, without major fluctuations in the diurnal thermometers in large areas of the interior.
On the other hand, several sources of extreme heat, storms and wind that require attention in very specific areas of the northeast of the peninsula and the Canary Islands. The most striking note is the night temperatures: the minimum they will not drop below 25 degrees in parts of the Mediterranean coast and the Canary Islands, where locally they could even stay above 30 degrees.
Organized showers and hail in the northeast quadrant
The first hours of the day will leave morning fogs in Galicia, the Cantabrian strip and several sections of the eastern peninsula façade. In the north of Galicia and on the Cantabrian coast the sky will remain covered and they will escape weak and scattered rainfallwhile the low cloudiness that affects the Mediterranean and the lower Ebro in the early morning will dissolve as the morning advances.
Starting at noon, evolution clouds will grow in the interior of the eastern third, in the central and northern mountains and in Mallorca. The AEMET predicts that these developments will lead to showers and storms in the mountains of the northeast quadrant and on the Balearic Islands. The most delicate situation is concentrated in the southern Iberia and in the eastern Pyrenees, where showers may reach strong intensity and be accompanied by hail.
Persistent heat and trade winds that gain strength
The maximums will rise slightly on the Atlantic slope and in the northeast of Catalonia, while they will decrease in most of the Mediterranean arc, in the Cantabrian Sea, in the upper Ebro and in the Canary Islands.
Despite these declines, the 35 degrees They will be exceeded in a large part of the southern and eastern halves of the Peninsula, as well as in the Balearic Islands and the Canary Islands. Capitals such as Albacete, Córdoba, Granada, Lleida, Málaga, Toledo or Zaragoza will be around 37 degrees.
The minimal They will hardly suffer any variations, with some slight decrease in the northwest of the peninsula and in the Canary Islands, and a slight rebound in the Ebro valley. tropical nights (above 20 degrees) will once again cover large areas of the southeast half of the peninsula and the Balearic Islands.
On the Mediterranean coast and in the Canary Islands the thermometer will remain above 25 degreesa situation that in specific points of the Canary archipelago could translate into minimum temperatures that do not drop below 30 degrees.
He wind It will also condition the day in some enclaves. In the Canary Islands the trade wind will blow with strong intervals and very intense gusts, while on the coasts of the southern peninsula a moderate westerly wind will prevail, which will subside in the Alboran Sea. In the rest of the country the wind will remain calm or it will blow softlywith a predominance of the eastern component in the Levant, the northern component in the Cantabrian Sea and the Balearic Islands, and the western component in the other regions.
