News: ​Orihuela Costa records warmest September day since 1950

The Valencian Community recorded its warmest and driest September day in more than 60 years with temperatures rising to 43 degrees Celsius on the Orihuela Costa, Costa Blanca South.

September 5th was the warmest day on record since 1950, as temperatures exceeded 42 degrees Celsius in most southern towns: Xativa 43.6ºC, Orihuela 42.9ºC, Carcaixent 42.7ºC, Novelda 42.6ºC and Villena 42.5ºC in Villena. The Alicante-Elche international airport recorded 39.8ºC on September 5th.

There were some storms in the second half of September but they were scarce in terms of rainfall accumulation as they did not affect a large area of territory, but rather were scattered and short-lived storms. In southern Alicante thunderstorm activity was non-existent.
