DEADLY Wildfires Continue to RAGE in Spain and Portugal Amid Scorching Heat -DEATH TOLL Rises

Relentless heat and raging wildfires continue to ravage southern Europe, with one quarter of weather stations in Spain recording 40C temperatures, as the prime minister urged people to leave the climate emergency outside of partisan struggles

The Spanish weather agency Aemet recorded a high of 45.8C in Cadiz on Sunday, while one in eight weather stations nationwide hit peaks of at least 42C 108F The agency warned of very high or extreme fire danger in most of the country in a post on social media on Monday.

Although the heatwave is starting to subside, very high temperatures will still be reached today in the east and south of the peninsula, it said. Be cautious.

Deadly fires have burned 348,000 hectares in Spain this year, according to preliminary data published by Copernicus on Monday, charring even more land than when the previous record was set in 2022.

A fourth person was killed by the fires in Spain when a firefighting truck overturned on a steep forest road, while in neighbouring Portugal, where 216,000 hectares have burned, another firefighter died, bringing the national death toll to two.

Civil protection authorities in Spain said 31,130 people have been evacuated from their homes in the last week.

The Spanish government said on Sunday that an extra 500 soldiers would join the 1,400 troops trying to bring deadly wildfires under control. The prime minister, Pedro S?nchez, announced a state pact to tackle the climate emergency as he visited Ourense and Le?n, one of the regions engulfed by flames.

Tourists Run From Satans Storm as Spain Beaches Evacuated

Tourists were forced to flee a beach and run for cover during a 'Satan's Storm' weather event that caused near hurricane force winds and a 104 degree Celsius temperature spike

Authorities ordered holidaymakers and locals to evacuate beaches as the rare weather phenomenon sent sunshades and other objects flying in Spain's Costa Tropical. At least five people had to be rescued after getting into difficulties in the water as inflatable dinghies and longboards were dragged out to sea.

Two tornados and waterspouts formed during the stormy heat burst, which affected resorts such as Motril and Almunecar south of Granada on Sunday evening.

The storm kicked up intense hurricane force winds that ripped through Spain

Motril was one of the places hardest hit, with footage of the damage caused showing a fibre-glass swimming pool on the roof of an apartment block being blown to the ground. A police helicopter was mobilised along with coastguards amid reports at least one person was missing.

The first emergency calls were received just before 8pm. Spanish weather agency Aemet confirmed The temperature rose rapidly to 40 degrees Celsius 104 degrees Fahrenheit at 7.50pm, accompanied by very strong gusts of wind that reached 53mph.

Motrils mayor Luisa Garcia Chamorro sounded a warning on social media. Posting just after 8pm, she said Attention. We are experiencing what is known as a heat burst with very strong, almost hurricane winds.

We recommend you dont leave your homes or remain on the street. Exercise maximum caution. Before the evacuation order most people had already abandoned beaches, with visibility reduced to near zero as the high winds left many caught in the middle of a sandstorm and forced to cover their faces with their hands as they headed for safety.

Witness Laura Bueno, speaking about the situation at Torrenueva Beach where some of the rescues took place, said What a scare. A heat burst swept away chairs and sunshades. It was a hot wind like the winds from the Sahara Desert.

It knocked over containers and blew everything into the sea. Children and adults suffered panic attacks. One shocked local added I dont remember seeing such a rapid weather change in such a short space of time. A regional emergency response coordination centre said it had received around 20 calls about problems caused by the high winds.

Heat bursts typically occur during night time and are associated with decaying thunderstorms. They are also characterized by extremely dry air and are sometimes associated with very strong, even damaging, winds.

Although the phenomenon is not fully understood, the event is thought to occur when rain evaporates into a parcel of cold, dry air high in the atmosphere, making the air denser than its surroundings. The parcel descends rapidly, warming due to compression, overshoots its equilibrium level, and reaches the surface, similar to a downburst.

Recorded temperatures during heat bursts have reached well above 40 degrees Celsius 104 degrees Fahrenheit, sometimes rising by ten degrees Celsius 18 degrees Fahrenheit or more within only a few minutes.

Locals and tourists were told not to leave their homes during the event

Spains meteorological agency said the heatwave, which has seen temperatures hit 45 degrees Celsius 113 degrees Fahrenheit in parts of the country, was coming to an end.

In Portugal, about 2,000 firefighters were deployed across the north and centre of the country on Monday, with about half of them concentrated in the town of Arganil
