Summer weather has arrived early in Huelva, where thermometers have registered unusually high figures for the season. This phenomenon has turned the province into a heat hotspot, with forecasts of highs close to 30 degrees Celsius throughout the weekend, encouraging residents to enjoy outdoor activities and the coast.

In this context of premature heat, El Granado, a town in Huelva, stood out last Thursday by reaching 31.8 degrees Celsius at 5:30 PM, according to data from the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet).

Closely following was the Aemet station in Tablada, Seville, with only 0.1 degrees Celsius less, while Almonte, also in Huelva, recorded 30.7 degrees Celsius at 5:20 PM.

The list of the ten warmest stations in the country was dominated by locations in Andalusia, with most situated in Seville. Exceptions included the aforementioned stations in Almonte and El Granado in Huelva, Jerez de la Frontera airport, and the Arroyo del Ojanco station in Jaén, confirming the intensity of the heat in the region.

For the weekend, meteorological forecasts indicate that high temperatures will persist.
