Yellow warning in effect today: Temperatures are set to hit 41°C, which is less “summer warmth” and more “oven preheating.”
Today: Expect mostly clear skies, though a few low clouds will try to make an appearance like understudies waiting for their big break. Winds will start off indecisive (light, 3 Beaufort) before choosing a southwesterly-to-northwesterly direction. They’ll stay light to moderate (3-4 Beaufort), but along the coasts they may briefly flex into moderate to strong (4-5 Beaufort), just enough to make you regret bringing anything lightweight. The sea will keep things simple: calm to slightly rough, nothing dramatic. As for temperatures, brace yourself: 41°C inland, around 35°C on the southeastern, southern, and northern coasts, and about 32°C on the western coasts and in the higher mountains. Translation: still hot everywhere, just with different levels of suffering.
Tonight: Mostly clear again, with some low clouds hanging around to keep things interesting. Later on, patches of fog are expected, especially in southern and eastern areas, perfect if you enjoy guessing where the road went. Winds will stick to their southwesterly-to-northwesterly habit before turning locally variable and staying light at 3 Beaufort. Seas will remain calm to slightly rough, cooperative enough for evening strolls. Temperatures will cool to around 23°C inland, 24°C on the coasts, and 21°C up in the mountains.
Saturday, Sunday & Monday: The forecast is on repeat; mostly clear, occasionally dotted with extra cloud cover. Fog may roll in during the late evening and early morning hours, mainly in southern, eastern, and inland areas.
Saturday keeps the heat steady and above seasonal norms. From Sunday onward, temperatures will gradually back off, finally landing near the climatological average by Monday, a polite reminder that even summer eventually has to simmer down.
