🔥🌡️ Holy Moly – The Air Is Burning in Ontinyent! 🇪🇸🔥
Good evening, Spain Lovers! ❤️☀️
Spain's record-breaking summer of 2026 continues with another scorching day across the Iberian Peninsula. Once again, eastern Spain bore the brunt of the extreme heat, with temperatures soaring well above 40°C in many regions. 🥵
🏆 Today's hottest place in Europe:
📍 Ontinyent (Valencia): 44.4°C 🔥
That makes Ontinyent the hottest location in Europe today, even surpassing Oschiri (Sardinia), where around 44°C had been forecast as Europe's expected hotspot. Spain once again claims the top spot! 🇪🇸👑
🌡️ Today's temperature highlights:
🔥 Ontinyent (Valencia): 44.4°C
🔥 Calasparra (Murcia): 43.3°C

🌍 Spain remains at the center of Europe's most intense heat, and with another powerful heat surge expected this weekend, the atmosphere is showing no signs of slowing down.
