The met agency Aemet has issued a heatwave advice effective from Saturday until Tuesday, July 1. This applies to almost all of the mainland but not to the Balearics. Aemet explains that an anticyclone from Africa will move in on Friday, pushing temperatures up to 42C in parts of the mainland. Where Mallorca is concerned, the met agency suggests that during this episode temperatures in the interior are likely to reach 36C and occasionally 38C.

Thursday temperatures are due to be down on the past few days, but weather stations do suggest they will go back up again, especially in the interior, which is what Aemet has indicated in its heatwave advice. Some possible occasional cloud on Thursday and maybe some early fog in areas; otherwise the sunny skies continuing on Thursday and for the foreseeable future.
