IPMA increases the number of heat warnings: now 15 districts under yellow warning until tomorrow, the 14th

Meteored Portugal13 September 2026 at 13:00

IPMA increased the number of heat warnings, now having 15 districts under yellow warning for hot weather until tomorrow, the 14th. Between today and Monday, these districts are under yellow warning, with only Faro, Bragança and Guarda excluded from this list. The warnings will be in effect until 6 PM tomorrow.

In addition to mainland Portugal, the Madeira archipelago is also under the same yellow warning, due to the persistence of high temperature values. In this case, the warning should extend until 6 PM on Tuesday, the 15th.

The heat will peak between today and tomorrow, Monday, with pronounced thermal anomalies forecast for most of the mainland territory. IPMA issued a series of hot weather warnings that are already in effect.

Why this matters

Readers in mainland Portugal and Madeira face high temperatures with an active yellow warning, which implies moderate risk for vulnerable groups and potential restrictions on outdoor activities. This situation follows a series of heat waves that have affected the country in recent weeks, increasing concern about public health and energy consumption.

Continental Portugal under hot weather: highs of 38 ºC before a change in atmospheric circulation

Continental Portugal is facing an intense heat episode with maximum temperatures that could reach 38 ºC, particularly in the interior regions, with thermal anomalies up to 10 ºC above climatological normal. The heat will persist today and tomorrow, affecting both the coast and the interior of the country. This situation is due to the strengthening of an anticyclonic ridge over the Iberian Peninsula, which brings a very hot air mass, with temperatures at around 1500 metres exceeding 20 ºC (reaching 23–24 ºC in the interior). From Tuesday onwards, a change in atmospheric circulation should gradually lower temperatures, bringing some relief.
