It will be very hot this week. The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) has already warned that "intense summer heat" is coming, with areas of the peninsula exceeding 35 degrees. The days will be accompanied by torrid nights, with minimums reaching 23 degrees.

In light of this temperature rise and considering the midday and afternoon activities, such as the mascletàs, Emergencies have published several heat-related recommendations on their website.

To combat the high daytime temperatures, they insist on staying hydrated and avoiding sugary drinks "which can promote dehydration." Emergencies also stress "being careful with cars and not leaving anyone inside, seeking cool places in the shade, and using appropriate protective creams."

Regarding advice for high nighttime temperatures, they recommend "staying in cool places, wearing light clothing, and being in well-ventilated environments with air conditioning." Additionally, they emphasize "staying hydrated and monitoring the elderly, sick, and children under four years old."
