MALAGA could experience one of its warmest summers since records began in 1961, according to Spain’s state weather agency, AEMET.AEMET’s director in Malaga, Jesus Riesco, said current seasonal forecasts point to temperatures remaining above average across the province during the coming months.“We’re expecting a summer that could be among the warmest in the historical record,” Riesco said.

The forecast follows a run of warmer-than-average years across southern Spain and reflects broader temperature trends seen in recent decades.While forecasts cannot predict specific heatwaves this far in advance, AEMET’s outlook suggests a higher probability of sustained warm conditions throughout the summer period.

For Malaga, higher temperatures may lead to increased demand for cooling and place additional pressure on water use during the busiest months of the tourist season.Authorities typically advise residents and visitors to stay hydrated and limit outdoor activity during the hottest parts of the day when temperatures rise.The final outcome will depend on day-to-day weather patterns over the coming weeks, but current projections indicate another notably warm summer for the province.
