The meteorological autumn has begun with very calm weather, dominated by the presence of some clouds that, from midday, have gained ground, although they have not left any precipitation. The mercury has relaxed a little and reached 32 ℃ or 33 ℃ where it has been hottest, but from Wednesday this situation will be reversed and the temperature will rise notably. We expect a second half of the week with thermal values well above the climatic average for early September, with no significant cooling in sight.

Mercury again exceeded 35 ℃ this Monday, as it did over the weekend, but in general the temperature remained around 29 ℃ to 33 ℃. These are typical values for the end of August that will also accompany us into early September, with heat that could intensify more from mid-week. On the horizon there is no early autumn rain storm, but also no extreme off-season heatwave.

The mercury rose above 35 ℃ again this Sunday, after a fairly cool night everywhere, although less so than Saturday. The temperature will remain with few changes this week, with controlled heat, without excesses, and the weather will also not experience significant changes. On the horizon there is no early autumn storm, but neither is there any out-of-season heatwave.

Mercury once again exceeded 35℃ this Saturday, after a quite cool early morning everywhere, even on the coast, a situation that will be repeated this Sunday. The week will end with a very calm day with no new developments, marked by a temperature that will tend to rise progressively and by a sun that, although it has already lost many minutes compared to the end of June, is still the protagonist.

The mercury dropped much shorter this Friday, after a Thursday with highs of over 36 ℃ or 37 ℃ in Alt Empordà, El Segrià and in points of the pre-littoral, and it barely exceeded 32 ℃ or 33 ℃ where it was hottest. However, a weekend awaits us in which the temperature will recover and the sun will once again be the protagonist, with no risk of precipitation.

The mercury climbed eagerly this Thursday, with highs of over 36 or 37 ℃ in Alt Empordà, Segrià and points of the pre-coastal area, but this thermal rise has limited hours because in the coming hours we will experience a notable drop in temperature. Subsequently, however, it will gradually rise again, always around the climatic average and without extremes.

We have left behind a Wednesday of very calm and stable weather, with two very distinct faces: a very cloudy morning and an afternoon with a lot of sun. Thursday has started with a repeat of the play and some cloud intervals, but the sun will assert itself much more quickly and give way to a much more pleasant and warm day. We find ourselves immersed in a thermal roller coaster, as after this thermal rise there will be a drop in temperature on Friday, while the weekend will be warmer again.

This Tuesday's weather was radically different from Monday's, with a clear dominance of the sun, and this Wednesday the novelty will be the presence of clouds that will be abundant during the morning, but which will lose the battle against the sun during the afternoon. Nevertheless, only a few isolated and unimportant drizzles are expected.

The Atlantic disturbance located west of the Iberian Peninsula left downpours and hailstorms during Monday afternoon, in some cases with large hailstones and violent gusts of wind (you will find a summary of the storms at the end of this article). This Tuesday, however, will be a radically different day, with much more stable and calm weather and no precipitation.

The Atlantic disturbance located off the coasts of Portugal and Galicia will send a front that will generate unstable weather in our territory this Monday. While the first part of the morning has been stable, from midday the panorama has changed radically and storms have gained ground, affecting a large part of the west and north half by mid-afternoon. Showers of moderate to strong intensity are expected and the possibility of hail or hailstorms in many places, especially in the northern half and the northwest quadrant (you will find a provisional summary of the storms at the end of this article).

The weekend has been marked by quiet mornings and unstable afternoons, with locally intense showers and thunderstorms that in some cases have left more than 50 or 60 mm. Good news after a very dry July and early August in a large part of the territory. The temperature has also relaxed practically everywhere, although intense heat has been maintained on the coast. Next week will begin with increasingly intense heat, but from the middle of the week a change in weather will arrive that will lower the temperature and leave more widespread precipitation.

The mercury has relaxed across the board after a few days of intense heat and this Saturday it reached 36°C or 37°C where it climbed the most. Normal values for the season that suggest a cooling down because we are coming from very high temperatures. Storms were also the protagonists during Saturday afternoon and evening in many places, especially in the northern half and the center of the country, where they were locally accompanied by hail. Notable are the 50 mm accumulated in Artés, in Bages, the 34 mm in Sant Pau de Segúries, in Ripollès, and the 33 mm in Gisclareny, in Berguedà. On Sunday afternoon, instability will already be decreasing and less extensive and intense showers will form.

This Friday the atmosphere was again very suffocating, with many highs of 35°C to 40°C even in coastal areas, but with higher values in Ponent and the Ebro valley, such as 41.5°C in El Canós (Segarra), 41.3°C in Vinebre (Ribera d'Ebre) or 41°C in Lleida and Alcarràs (Segrià) and Tàrrega (Urgell). They also brushed against 40°C on the Barcelona pre-littoral. Such extremely high temperatures will not be repeated this weekend, with thermometers dropping. We are coming from so high that the heat of full summer will continue, but it will be less intense and far from 40°C. All this with an increase in instability. Showers and storms will gain ground and intensity, mainly in the pre-littoral, inland and in the Pyrenees. But these showers could reach some coastal areas. No such extreme heat episode is foreseen in the medium term and by the end of next week the atmosphere will be much more bearable.

Attention this Friday because the torrid peak of this new episode of intense heat that is again affecting a large part of Western Europe will occur. Many regions - most of the country - are on orange or yellow alert for extreme temperatures. Towards the plain of Lleida or the Ebro valley, temperatures will reach or exceed 40°C, while in most of the country, between 35 and 40ºC will be recorded, with very marked sultriness near the sea. Suffocating day.

We leave behind a historic Wednesday at home due to the solar eclipse, which was total or slightly partial depending on the area of the country. Clear skies dominated most of the territory during the event and allowed us to enjoy this unique spectacle, although cloudy intervals were a nuisance, especially in parts of the Pyrenees, pre-Pyrenees, and nearby areas, such as the northeast. Once this exceptional event has passed, what weather awaits us in the coming days? Well, between Thursday and Friday, temperatures will hit their peak, and there will be a new torrid spell with suffocating conditions. But everything seems to indicate that it will be the grand finale of the worst part of the summer, as from the weekend the thermometers will begin to drop and instability will increase. Next week, the heat will be clearly more bearable and normalized for the second half of August.

The most anticipated day of this 2026 is here. Millions of people will enjoy this Wednesday evening the historic eclipse of the Sun, which will be total in the southern regions of Catalonia, in all of the Balearic Islands, and in a large part of the Valencian Country. A unique and exceptional phenomenon marked on the agenda for some time. Everything is ready to enjoy this spectacle, but only clouds could spoil it. And it is that in some regions, there will be concern until the last moment due to the presence of clouds that may interfere with seeing the sky clearly. It should be said, however, that in most of the territory the phenomenon can be seen without problems.

The weekend has been marked by calmer weather than in previous days, although instability continued to be the protagonist of the afternoon in some regions, especially on Saturday, when showers and thunderstorms in the Pyrenees, pre-Pyrenees and the regions of Ponent left, locally, more than 50 or 60 l/m² and wind gusts of 100 km/h.

The weekend began with calmer weather than in previous days, although instability was still the protagonist of Saturday afternoon in some regions, with showers and thunderstorms in the Pyrenees, pre-Pyrenees, and the regions of Ponent which locally left more than 50 or 60 mm and wind gusts of 100 km/h. In the rest, however, the weather became very calm and warm again, with intense heat near the coast. The situation will be repeated for Sunday, when the heat could strengthen a bit more to the detriment of the showers, which will already be more localized.

This Friday was calmer in most of the country, but strong afternoon storms were repeated again concentrated in parts of the Pyrenees, pre-Pyrenees -especially the eastern part- and the northeast, locally with hail or sleet. However, in some cases it rained more than on Thursday, and precipitation again reached parts of the coast. The storms left some notable records, especially between Berguedà and Ripollès, such as the 62 l/m² that fell in Guardiola de Berguedà, the 34 in Sant Pau de Segúries or the 32 in La Quar.
