All of Spain on alert for storms and scorching temperatures: Weather forecast July 29-Aug 1
A DANA will hit Spain at the beginning of the week, bringing heavy rain and overcast skies to much of the country

Weather alerts on Monday July 29
The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) has placed the entire country on alert at the beginning of the week for a range of weather phenomena, including scorching temperatures, storms, heavy rainfall and dangerous waves. This is thanks to the arrival of a DANA (isolated depression at high levels) from the southwest on Monday which will linger over Spain for at least a couple of days.
Monday July 29

All of Spain, with the exception of the Balearic Islands, will be overcast on Monday as the DANA sweeps in, and there’s a good chance of heavy rain and storms in most inland regions and the northwest. These weather patterns are notoriously hard to predict, but for now it looks unlikely that the rain will not spread too far south, although most of the country will be very hazy.
Daytime temperatures will continue to climb practically everywhere, easily exceeding 35ºC in southern Spain and approaching 40ºC in the Guadalquivir. Monday night will be uncomfortably warm also, especially along the coasts.
Orange alerts for extreme temperatures have been activated in Andalucía, Aragon, the Balearic Islands, Catalonia, Navarra and the Basque Country.
Tuesday July 30

The effects of the DANA will linger on Tuesday, resulting in plenty of cloud cover in most of the country. Showers and thunderstorms are again forecast inland during the early hours, but these should move east and disappear gradually as the day goes on.
A haze is likely in a large part of the country and the Balearic Islands, retreating towards the northeast. There is a chance of coastal fog and mist in the western Cantabrian Sea, the coasts of Galicia, the Andalucían Atlantic and the Alboran.
The mercury is on the rise again along the Mediterranean coast and in the south-east in general, where temperatures will continue to exceed 35ºC.
Orange alerts for extremely high temperatures have been activated in Andalucía, Aragón, the Balearic Islands, Castilla La-Mancha, Catalonia, Madrid, Navarra, the Basque Country and La Rioja.
Wednesday July 31

The weather will start to stabilise on Wednesday and the skies should clear up, although there’s still a chance of light rain on the Cantabrian coast. However, the air will be laden with Saharan dust in most of the country throughout the day, but this too should dissipate towards the evening.
Both daytime and night-time temperatures will creep up once more, and several regions, including Andalucía, the Valencian Community and the Region of Murcia are under orange alerts for heat.
Thursday August 1

The temperatures will be stifling in the south of Spain on Thursday, where many regions will hover around 40ºC, although Aemet has not yet decreed which area will be subject to weather alerts.
Most of the country can expect partly cloudy or clear skies, with scattered showers effecting northern Spain.
