Tourists heading to Spain or Portugal have been warned that temperatures are soaring in intense weather conditions.
While much of Britain is set to experience sunny spells throughout this week, those jetting off to the continent face warnings over extreme heat. The mercury could top 40C in some Spanish towns, with no sign of the heatwave settling in the next few days, reports the Irish Mirror.
The most intense conditions are expected in Costa del Sol, as well as the Balearic and Canary Islands, up until the end of next week. In Andalusia, which has already seen its first serious forest fire of the summer, an orange weather warning has been issued with highs of 44C forecasted. Many other parts of the country are on Yellow alert.
