AEMET has activated the yellow heat alert for the Costa del Sol and the Guadalhorce Valley. Torremolinos will reach a maximum of 35 degrees with clear skies.
The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has placed Torremolinos and the rest of the Costa del Sol on yellow alert due to the maximum temperatures expected for this Wednesday. The warning, which also affects the Guadalhorce Valley, will be in effect during the central hours of the day when the mercury will reach 35 degrees.
The day will start with few clouds from dawn, tending to clear from midday and becoming slightly overcast again by the end of the afternoon. Winds will be light from the south, providing no significant thermal relief.
No thermal changes compared to Tuesday
Temperatures will hardly vary from the previous day: the minimum will remain at 25 degrees, meaning nights will continue to be warm. AEMET recommends avoiding sun exposure during peak hours, staying hydrated, and paying special attention to the elderly and children.
Thursday's outlook will be very similar: clear skies and the same temperatures, with maximums of 35 and minimums of 25. The wind will remain light from the south. A slight increase is expected for Friday, with a maximum of 36 degrees and a minimum of 26, although the sky will start the day with few clouds and become overcast by the afternoon.
Weekend with heat, but slightly milder
For Saturday, AEMET forecasts few clouds and a maximum of 34 degrees, with a minimum of 24. Sunday will see a slight drop: 32 degrees maximum and 26 minimum. The wind will be gentle, from the south on Saturday and from the southeast on Sunday.
For the residents of Torremolinos, heat will be the trend in the coming days. The Town Hall reminds that climate shelters are available in the locality, such as libraries and civic centres, for those needing a break from the heat.
“We recommend constant hydration, avoiding going out during peak hours, and not leaving anyone inside parked vehicles,” say sources from Civil Protection.
The yellow alert is the lowest level of warning, but it should not be taken lightly: high temperatures can cause heat strokes, especially in vulnerable individuals. On the beach, the thermometer will not relent, so it is essential to protect oneself well and enjoy the sea with caution.
