Spain's PM has warned of the ongoing 'challenge' faced by the country as climate change continues to bring extreme conditions to the Mediterranean. Reservoirs are around 15% below average levels, while the dry conditions are raising fears about the outbreak of more wildfires this summer.
The agency said temperatures are expected to drop on Sunday and Monday,"ending this episode of exceptionally high temperatures for the time of year".
The top temperature ever recorded in Spain for April was 37.4C in Murcia in the southeastern part of the country in 2011. Temperatures above 30C are expected across much of southern Spain on Wednesday before continuing to rise.Residents are being urged to think about how they use water supplies as drought conditions continue to grip Spain despite recent cold and wet conditions for many other parts of Europe.
