Thermometers plummet
As regards temperatures, the forecast expects an almost general decrease, locally notable in the maximum temperatures in central areas. In areas of the Mediterranean area and the Canary Islands, they will increase slightly. Even so, the maximum temperatures will be high in the middle Ebro and in the depressions of the northeast. It will be warmer in Lleida (37 degrees), Zaragoza (36) and Huesca (35), and milder especially in Oviedo (19) and A Coruña, Lugo and Santander (21).. On the other hand, the AEMET expects haze at high levels in the eastern half and the Balearic Islands, tending to decrease.
The weather for the weekend
The DANA will move away from the peninsula during the weekendalthough a new Atlantic trough will penetrate the northwest of the peninsula, maintaining instability. Saturday It will be a day with showers and storms widely distributed across the northern half, also in points in the center, and that locally, for another day, could be intense.
The situation will be similar Sunday, again with the possibility of rain and showers in areas of the northern half and the center, although perhaps they are less likely. That day there will be a general rise in temperatures and the weather will still be cool in the north. The heat will be a little hotter in the south, east and the Balearic Islands, where in some areas it may exceed 34ºC.
Tropical nights are back
During the week of July 1 to 7, a stabilization trend is expected, although instability may persist in the north and northeast of the peninsula at the beginning. Thus, in the extreme north, cloudy skies and the possibility of weak rainfall and diurnal cloudiness are expected in the interior northeastern third, with possible showers accompanied by some storms that will subside as the days go by. Intervals of low clouds on Mediterranean coasts are also not ruled out. In the rest of the Peninsula, slightly cloudy skies or some evolving clouds will predominate. Temperatures will increase. Temperatures can exceed 35 degrees in the southwest. On the southeastern and eastern coasts, tropical nights are likely, in which the temperature will not drop below 20 degrees.
