forecast for this weekend
The risk of fire continues now and in the coming days. Aemet spokesperson warned of “very high risk of fire in Mediterranean regions” during the operation. Thursday and Friday are due to a combination of three variables: high temperatures, low humidity and high winds. this increases the risk of fire.
In the rest of the country, this day is expected to be slightly cloudy, with increased clouds and some rain in Galicia and other points in the extreme north, and a drop in temperatures, however, as Del Campo observed. will still be 5 to 10 degrees above normal average in most of Spain.
For Rainfall on Friday will be limited to Galicia, the Cantabrian Sea, the Pyrenees and the north of the Iberian system., but there will be light rains in general; In the rest of Spain it will be slightly cloudy and westerly winds will lower temperatures in most of the Peninsula except the Mediterranean.
In this region, the Mediterranean region and southern Andalusia, temperatures will again exceed 30 or even 32 degrees, this will support the risk of fire in these areas which will once again be very high or extreme.
A “cold air mass” will arrive over the weekend as winds shift to the northwest. Therefore, the spokesperson concluded that the drop in temperatures will support the normalization of temperatures, highlighted by values that could drop by as much as 10 degrees on Saturday compared to Friday.
