Prepare for a brutal rise in temperatures: Coimbra will reach 37ºC. Find out what will be the hottest day of the week

Maximum temperatures will rise 10 to 12 degrees Celsius in some locations in mainland Portugal from Wednesday onwards, according to weather forecasts. This sharp rise will affect several regions of the country, bringing with it a significant heat wave. Coimbra will be one of the most affected cities, with thermometers reaching 37 degrees Celsius. The hottest day of the week has not yet been fully specified in the article, but the highest temperatures are expected to be felt in the days following the transition from Tuesday to Wednesday. This sudden change in weather conditions is due to the arrival of a hot air mass from the interior of the Iberian Peninsula, which will replace the milder weather that has been experienced in recent days. Authorities recommend caution, especially for more vulnerable groups such as the elderly, children, and people with health problems.
