Brits travelling abroad for their summer holidays have been warned that temperatures in some of the most popular Spanish destinations have hit sweltering highs.
Temperatures in the Canary and Balearic Islands are due to be much higher than normal for the next three months, sparking a heatwave warning from the health department. Local authorities on both islands have also launched an emergency heat prevention plan, set to last until September, ChronicleLive reports.
While hot and sunny weather may sound ideal for us Brits, who are used to a cool and rainy climate, extra care should be taken for those travelling to any Canary or Balearic destinations. Being accustomed to a much cooler climate could make Brits more susceptible to heat exhaustion or heatstroke.
