Spain regularly faces extreme heatwaves during summer as it lies in the Mediterranean climate zone. Temperatures above 40°C (104°F) are not uncommon in the southern and central regions during heatwave events. These intense heat periods can cause public health issues, put stress on agriculture and energy systems, and raise wildfire risks. Spain’s meteorological agencies closely monitor forecasts and issue alerts such as "red heat alerts" to warn the public and authorities about the impending dangerous conditions.
