A "hellish" Thursday night, with temperatures not dropping below 30C, has given way to a Friday that looks set to be torrid in the province of Malaga. An amber alert for heat has been activated by Spain's state weather agency (Aemet) between 1pm and 9pm But even before that, eight of the ten stations with the highest temperatures recorded in the whole of Spain this morning were registered in the province.

August has begun with a torrid start in Malaga province. The threat of an amber alert was more than fulfilled and on Thursday the thermometers soared, with the highest registered in Álora, where the afternoon sweltered at 44.2C degrees.

In Coín, the temperature reached 42.5 degrees. Just behind were Alpandeire (41.3C), Estepona (40.3) and Cortes de la Frontera (40). Five weather stations therefore exceeded the psychological barrier.
