Portugal summer 2024 to be 'hotter than ever'

Desk Report: Forecasts based on Copernicus point to above-average temperatures in summer with several risk factors. 

The upcoming summer will be even hotter than usual. The alert was launched last week by Aemet, Spain's meteorological agency, based on Copernicus, the European Union's Earth observation program.

According to their projection, “there is a very high probability of 70% to 100%” that temperatures will rise above normal in Portugal, in almost all of Spain, in southern Europe, and in North Africa, in the coming months.
