The episode of anomalous or 'spring' heat of these last days of March will intensify this Thursday in the Mediterranean area and the Canary Islands, where temperatures will continue to rise to exceed 30 degrees, while thermometers will mark lower values in the rest of the country.
The prediction of the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet), collected by Servimedia, indicates that temperatures will rise extraordinarily in Valencia (12 degrees more than this Wednesday) and Malaga (11 more), and notably in Alicante (nine) and Murcia (seven) and areas of the Canary Islands. On the contrary, they will go down in the rest of the country.
The hottest capitals will be Valencia (33 degrees), Malaga and Murcia (32), and Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Seville and Zaragoza (30). On the other hand, it will soften more in Pontevedra and Tarragona (19), and A Coruña, Barcelona, Burgos, León (20).

The winds arrive dry and overheated in the Mediterranean regions. That's why the temperature rises so much. In addition, that dry wind from the west causes the relative humidity to drop and, therefore, the risk of fires is triggered, "according to Rubén del Campo, spokesman for the Aemet.
In addition, in the Canary Islands it will be possible to exceed 34 degrees in points of the south of Gran Canaria, Tenerife and Fuerteventura, all with the presence of suspended dust. "It's more like summer than late March," Del Campo said.
Apart from the Canary Islands and the Mediterranean regions, temperatures will drop. The skies will be little cloudy and clouds are expected especially in Galicia and other areas of the far north, where it could rain weakly.
