El Periódico Mediterráneo - General3 September 2026 at 11:17

The heat has not left yet. The respite that the mercury gave during the last few days in the province of Castellón is about to end with the arrival of a very anomalous episode of high temperatures. The meteorological phenomenon known as bochorno (sultriness) is returning to the region.

The State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) issued a warning about this situation, classifying it as a very anomalous episode of high temperatures. This warning indicates that the expected meteorological conditions will significantly deviate from the normal values for this time of year.

The situation specifically affects the province of Castellón, where residents had enjoyed a brief period of milder temperatures in recent days. However, this pause is about to end with the return of intense heat conditions.
