British holidaymakers set for Spain should expect Saharan dust clouds and wildfires as an unprecedented heatwave with 41C temperatures will blast the country, officials warn.
Spain's meteorological agency Aemet predicted 'one of the hottest Mays in this country in recent years' as it warned of the coming weather front.
The Saharan air will spike the temperature to "unheard of" levels as the agency launched its national plan for excess temperatures two weeks early on Thursday claiming "the summer is starting in the spring", the Mail reports.
