ARCHIVED - Still no rain in sight as drought worsens: Andalucia weather forecast April 17-23
Water usage restrictions have been placed on Andalucía farmers as reservoirs sink below normal levels
Andalucía weather forecast, Tuesday April 18
It will be another week where temperatures exceed 30ºC in Andalucía, especially in Seville and Cordoba, while maximum temperatures will be in the mid-20s in Cadiz, Almeria and Malaga.
The lack of rain remains a worry as we move into the second half of April, traditionally a wet and rainy month in Spain, and aquifers are well below the point where they should be for this time of year, leading to water restrictions for farmers and industry in Andalucía.
This Monday April 17 and Tuesday 18, there are weather warnings issued for the coastal areas around the Bay of Cadiz and the Strait of Gibraltar for gale force 7 and 8 winds that will bring a chill feeling to the air and make bathing in the sea dangerous.
By Wednesday 19, the wind will have died down in this area, but the yellow weather alert will shift to the coast of Granada and Almeria, which can expect easterly winds of 50-60kmh and waves of 2-3 metres high.
Andalucía weather warnings, Wednesday April 19
For the rest of the week, the weather forecast is for warm and settled days in Andalucía, though some widespread cloud cover will come in on Thursday April 20. By Saturday 22, these clouds will mean a sudden drop in temperatures, where the maximum is just 25ºC around Seville, Cordoba and the Costa del Sol, down from highs of 32ºC the day before.

However, the temperature should rebound on Sunday 23, and it will be a warm and pleasant weekend, weather-wise. That said, still no rain is forecast whatsoever in the whole region for this week, worsening the current state of drought that we find ourselves in and making the risk of wildfires even more dangerous.
