Notícias de Coimbra3 September 2026 at 07:28

The Portuguese Institute of the Sea and the Atmosphere (IPMA) issued a yellow warning for hot weather extending until Saturday, also covering the city of Coimbra, which doesn't escape the new heat wave affecting the country.

The high temperatures are part of a new heat wave hitting mainland Portugal, leading authorities to warn the population about the risks associated with intense heat.

The city of Coimbra prepares to face days of high temperatures, with meteorology forecasting typical "oven" conditions during this period.

The yellow warning, the second lowest in a three-level scale, indicates risk situations for certain activities dependent on weather conditions, alerting citizens to the need for precautions against extreme heat.

The sky turned pink in China: the impressive phenomenon that appeared before a strong storm

A rare meteorological phenomenon painted the sky in intense pink and red tones over Changzhou, in Jiangsu province, China, on the morning of August 31. The spectacle lasted about seven to eight minutes and was followed by a strong storm. The spectacular coloring did not originate from any extraordinary phenomenon, but resulted from the combination of the Sun's position, high humidity, and water particles and droplets present in the atmosphere, whose contrast with the storm clouds made the landscape even more impressive. The moment was quickly shared on social media by local residents.
