On Tuesday, Andalucía will have "generally clear skies, with increasing cloudiness in the mountains, accompanied by occasional showers and thunderstorms".
According to the Aemet forecast, temperatures will rise across the board, except along the Mediterranean coast. The highest temperatures will be in Cordoba and Seville, reaching 37C and 36C, respectively.
Minimum temperatures will also be high, reaching 22C in Malaga province. Additionally, a moderate easterly wind will blow along the Mediterranean coast.
Delegate of Aemet in Andalucía Juan de Dios del Pino said that temperatures would gradually rise by about 5C until Saturday, "going from current 35C to 40C at the weekend". According to him, this "could be the first heatwave of the season".
Aemet has already activated extreme heat warnings, starting at 1pm on Wednesday in the Guadalquivir Valley, concerning Seville, Cordoba and Jaén.
Possible first heatwave of the season
Del Pino hasn't ruled out the possibility of Aemet activating amber weather alerts this weekend, if a heatwave starts.
Aemet has stated that there will be little wind, light and variable, with a sea breeze along the coasts. Del Pino said that this weather pattern is characterised by high pressure over mainland Spain, with a cold air mass in the upper troposphere, which will generate instability.
The temperature contrast between the cold air above and the warm air below will lead to some instability, especially in the afternoons when the sun is strongest, causing the formation of clouds that could lead to storms.
