Overview
- Inland eastern Galicia recorded unusually high early-summer temperatures with readings up to 36°C in Ourense while regional agencies issued orange and yellow warnings for heavy, short-lived downpours and hail.
- Local school alert authorities suspended outdoor activities from early afternoon in parts of Lugo and Ourense in response to the orange-level meteorological warnings to protect students from storm hazards.
- MeteoGalicia and AEMET warned that upper-level instability could trigger locally strong thunderstorms with intense rain in short periods, electrical activity and isolated hail in the interior provinces.
- Coastal municipalities around Vigo reported largely clear, milder forecasts with daytime highs in the mid-20s and no precipitation expected, reflecting a sharp inland-to-coast contrast driven by maritime air.
- Forecasters expect a modest cooling for eastern inland Galicia as a fresher Atlantic air mass moves in and related coverage noted parallel episodes elsewhere, including a yellow alert for Santa Fe, Argentina, and extreme-heat forecasts with intermittent storms in Nuevo León, Mexico.
