Key Points
- • AEMET confirms the heat wave will last until August 14, 2025.

- • Increased electricity demand is anticipated during this heat wave.
The intense heat wave currently gripping Spain is forecasted to last until at least August 14, 2025, according to recent updates from the State Meteorological Agency (AEMET). In a positive turn, AEMET has chosen not to extend the heat wave warnings as of today, August 9, giving some relief to residents bracing for high temperatures that have already significantly impacted daily life.
Mario Picazo, a well-known meteorologist, suggests that while the high temperatures are expected to continue for several days, conditions may begin to improve following that date. He estimates the potentially sweltering conditions could start to ease next weekend, although he has warned that some regions may still experience elevated temperatures even after August 14.
As temperatures persist, regions across Spain are seeing heat advisories, and public health officials are urging citizens to take precautions to avoid heat-related illnesses. Spain has been combating not only the rising heat but also has been preparing for the increased electricity demand anticipated during these scorching days. The gradual approach of cooler air may bring much-needed relief as the summer progresses.
