Andalusia has not experienced an Easter Week without rain since 2017, and the hot and dry conditions look set to continue into the weekend.

Like the rest of the south of the peninsula, Andalusia is still immersed in one of the most intense periods of drought and anomalous temperatures since records began.

This has brought forward the risk of fires in almost the entire region and will intensify after a further increase in temperatures, extending the extreme risk level to almost the entire Andalusian interior into the beginning of next week. <span style='color:#780948'>ARCHIVED</span> - Hottest and driest Easter Weekend in five years: Andalucia weather April 7-9

The Andalusian atmosphere has been dominated by high pressure and dry and sunny conditions that will continue into the middle of next week when there could be a short period of rain, according to the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet).

Over the weekend, thermometers will rise by between 2 and 4 degrees throughout the region.

Friday April 7 will get off to a fairly cloudy or clear start, except in the Strait of Gibraltar, where intervals of low cloud are expected during the morning. Temperatures will remain unchanged, with the exception of areas along the Mediterranean coast where maximum temperatures will fall. A light variable wind is forecast inland, easterly on the coast and very strong gusts around the Strait of Gibraltar.
