IPMA places seven districts under yellow warning until 21:00 today due to heat

dnoticias.pt7 September 2026 at 07:52

The Portuguese Institute of the Sea and the Atmosphere issued a hot weather warning for seven districts of mainland Portugal, valid until 21:00 today. The covered districts are Beja, Castelo Branco, Évora, Faro, Lisbon, Setúbal and Portalegre.

The yellow warning was issued due to the high maximum temperature values recorded in these regions, according to information provided by IPMA in a statement.

In addition to the mainland districts, IPMA also placed the south coast of Madeira island and Porto Santo under yellow warning. In these areas, the warning is due to the persistence of high maximum temperature values between 09:00 today and an unspecified time in the article.

The yellow warning is the second lowest level on a three-level meteorological warning scale, indicating situations of risk for certain activities dependent on weather conditions.

Up to 9°C less: between tomorrow and Wednesday, polar air will cause a sharp drop in temperatures

A mass of polar air should cause a sharp drop in temperatures in mainland Portugal between Tuesday and Wednesday, with differences that could reach 9°C. The high temperatures at the beginning of the week will start to drop on Tuesday in the North and on the coast, becoming more widespread on Wednesday. This change will be associated with a reorganization of the atmospheric circulation over the Iberian Peninsula, with an anticyclone in the Atlantic combined with a low pressure area at altitude over Europe, favoring a north and northwest flow that will transport polar air to Portugal.
