Spain is entering a summer expected to be warmer than usual, following its second warmest spring on record. National weather agency Aemet forecasts temperatures will likely exceed seasonal norms throughout June, July, and August. This comes as the country prepares for its first heatwave of the year. The unusually warm spring indicates a continuation of rising temperatures, raising concerns about potential heat-related health risks and environmental impacts. Aemet’s assessment suggests a high probability of sustained heat across the Iberian Peninsula in the coming months. Authorities are preparing for increased demand on resources and potential strain on infrastructure due to the anticipated heat.
