Heatwave to continue into next week …
The heat wave which has been causing sweaty necks in Ibiza and Formentera since last Friday will probably extend into next week, up to Saturday 11th July. The official temperature has reached a sweltering 35.6o Celsius in Sant Joan, though readers are routinely reporting 40O+ temperatures on their dashboards and mobiles around the island.
The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has issued warnings on the increased risk of forest fires and the high level of UV radiation. The Ministry of Health also requested caution, especially for people who suffer most from the heat, such as children and the elderly. The AEMET urges citizens to stay informed through its website, www.aemet.es, and its official Twitter account. Turn to page 8 for more hot stuff!
