In large parts of southern and central Spain, temperatures do not fall below 20 degrees at night. It was warmest so far in Jaen with nights of at least 26 degrees.
“Summer eats up spring,” headlines the El Pais newspaper of the heat waves that start earlier each year. The only logical explanation for this phenomenon is climate change, the newspaper quotes the spokesman for the Spanish weather service as saying.
People in the south of Spain can expect some relief only next week. Then the maximum temperatures should ‘only’ be around 30 degrees.
