Global regions continue to experience diverse and extreme meteorological events. In Spain, extreme heatwaves previously impacted Galicia, Andalusia, and the Mediterranean coast, with 430 deaths attributed to heat in Andalusia between May 15 and August 13, 2026. In Pamplona, the summer saw persistent high temperatures, with 34 out of 94 days exceeding 35 °C and a peak of 40.4 °C on July 29. Following these heatwaves, weather patterns have shifted toward torrential rain. AEMET has issued red and orange alerts for several areas, including Tarragona, due to the risk of flooding, with some zones expected to receive up to 180 l/m² in a short period. In Ciudad Real, temperatures are transitioning toward cooler autumn conditions. In Tunisia, heavy rainfall has caused flooding in several areas, including parts of Tunis, where rains reached up to 75 mm in Bir Mcherga. To mitigate flood risks, the Ministry of Equipment and Housing reported that over 2,600 kilometers of waterways have been cleared, though instability and stormy rains are expected to continue in the north and center-west. In France, weather conditions remain divided. While northern regions face rain, much of the country remains dry and sunny, with southern temperatures reaching near 30 °C. In Haiti, high temperatures between 34 and 38 °C are expected due to Saharan dust, prompting authorities to advise the population to stay hydrated. As of late September, Spain is seeing a transition to autumn, marked by dropping temperatures and incoming rainfall across provinces such as Andalusia, Córdoba, Madrid, and Ciudad Real. Additionally, Castilla y León reported a record-breaking summer regarding water safety, recording 28 fatal drownings.
