ARCHIVED - 23 degrees in Mazarrón just 2 weeks before Christmas!

Warm weather in the Costa Cálida to continue at least until the weekend

Mazarrón came close to appearing in the list of the ten warmest places in Spain on Monday with a top temperature of 23.2 degrees, and Aemet are forecasting a continuation of the fine weather until the end of the week.

Other maximums on Monday included 22.4 in Cartagena, 22.3 in Águilas and 22 in both Fuente Álamo and San Javier, and on Tuesday there will hardly be a cloud in the sky although temperatures may dip just slightly, the expected highs reaching 17 in Yecla and Cartagena, 19 in Caravaca de la Cruz and Lorca and 20 in the city of Murcia. Cloud cover is likely to increase on Thursday and Friday but the afternoon temperatures will remain in the high teens or low twenties: not bad with just a fortnight to go until Christmas!
