The capital of Málaga has reached 15.7 degrees on the morning of this Saturday, the lowest figure since the start of the meteorological summer. The sea water has also set a record, at 15.5 degrees.

The morning of this Saturday has left Málaga with the lowest minimum temperature of the entire meteorological summer, which began on 1 June. The thermometer has dropped to 15.7 degrees, a record that, according to meteorology expert José Luis Escudero, has been generally repeated throughout the province.

Escudero explained this on his blog 'Tormentas y rayos': "Today, Saturday 29 August, the lowest minimum temperature since the start of the meteorological summer has been recorded," he states. "This has not only happened in Málaga capital, but generally, the whole province has experienced the coolest morning and dawn of this meteorological summer," he adds.

The thermal drop has also been felt in the sea. This Friday, the water reached 15.5 degrees, the lowest temperature in the history of August in the province. At present, the sea thermometer stands at 16 degrees.

Despite this temporary drop, the cool respite will not last long. Escudero predicts that temperatures will rise again from Tuesday, coinciding with the start of the meteorological autumn. The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) expects minimums of 20 to 22 degrees in the capital and maximums of up to 30 degrees.

For this Saturday, Aemet forecasts rising temperatures inland and little change or a slight drop along the coast, with light variable winds and breezes. Across the country, the day will be marked by anticyclonic weather, with mostly clear or sunny skies. Maximum temperatures will generally rise, except in the Mediterranean coasts, eastern Balearic Islands, and western Galicia, where they may exceed 35 degrees in the Guadalquivir valley.

Residents of the province have taken advantage of these cool mornings to sleep with blankets, a relief that contrasts with the heat of previous weeks and, according to experts, brings the atmosphere closer to a seasonal transition typical of late August.
