Las Hogueras de San Juan Alicante de este año 2025 van a ser las más cálidas desde que hay registros en Alicante y, además, «con diferencia», según la Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (Aemet). Los dos últimos días superarán en 4.2 ºC el promedio normal y en 1.3 ºC a las de 2005, que hasta ahora eran las más cálidas.
According to the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet), this year's Hogueras de San Juan Alicante will be the hottest on record, and by a significant margin. The last two days will exceed the normal average by 4.2 ºC and surpass the 2005 temperatures, which were previously the highest, by 1.3 ºC.
Las #Fogueres25 (días 20 a 24 de junio) van a ser las más cálidas desde que hay registros en Alicante y, además, con diferencia. Con la previsión de los dos últimos días, superarán en 4.2 ºC el promedio normal y en 1.3 ºC a las de 2005, que hasta ahora eran las más cálidas. https://t.co/AbG02nxHQk

In fact, according to the agency, these will be the hottest not only at the Ciudad Jardín observatory, which has records dating back to 1939, but also in the previous historical records in the city (Sismológico, Instituto, and Jardín del Asilo), thus, since at least 1856.
Therefore, this Monday, a public holiday in Alicante, will be a very hot day with maximum temperatures reaching up to 38 degrees Celsius. This temperature threshold has triggered the yellow alert across the entire coastline of the province from north to south.
