List of extreme temperatures in Spain

Here is a list of the hottest temperature recorded in Spain.

On July 30, 1876 and August 4, 1881, temperatures of 51 °C (124 °F) and 50 °C (122 °F)[1] were both reported for Seville: these readings are unreliable, since they were measured under a standard exposure and in poor technical conditions.[2] A temperature of 48.8 °C (119.8 °F) was also recorded at Cazalla de la Sierra on August 30, 1926, but is generally not considered valid by international standards,[3] along with other unofficial readings measured in various locations, probably taken without proper instruments.[4] On July 17, 1978, an unconfirmed temperature of 47.5 °C (117.5 °F) was recorded at Barranco de Masca, Tenerife.[5]
