Weather of Arabia - The countries of the western Mediterranean, represented by the Maghreb, Algeria and Tunisia, in addition to the Iberian Peninsula (Spain), are exposed to a strong and early heat wave, with which temperatures rose sharply and remarkably, and their climate averages exceeded much for the month of April, amid very hot weather in many regions.

 

On Thursday 4-27-2023, Cordoba Airport in Spain recorded record temperatures, the highest temperature in Spain during the month of April, as the maximum temperature reached approximately 38.7 degrees Celsius, exceeding the highest temperature recorded during the previous month of March by about 5 degrees Celsius. "This wave is likely to peak on Thursday and Friday," said the Spanish Meteorological Service, speaking of "extreme temperatures close to those recorded in early July and generalized records for the month of April." It is a situation that worries the authorities in this country, which is at the forefront of the countries that suffer from global warming in Europe. Arab Weather explains the scientific reasons for the heat wave and expects the beginning of its decline, and the experts of the Arab Regional Weather Center said that the scientific reason behind the occurrence of an unusual heat wave in the western Mediterranean is due to the rush of an air mass with much colder temperatures towards central Europe and northern Libya, which is matched by another very cold rushing To the waters of the Atlantic Ocean This situation leads to a gathering of hot air over the Maghreb. However, computer numerical simulation models indicate that the heat wave will begin to recede from Iberia and the Maghreb countries during the coming days, as temperatures begin to gradually decrease, God willing. God knows.
