  "account": "Summer seems determined to stick around in Spain even as autumn officially begins. The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) has issued warnings of hot temperatures and possible storms. Much of the country is returning to warmer summer-like conditions after recent rain and storms. Areas across southern Spain, including the Costa del Sol, are experiencing temperatures expected to rise above 30ºC in certain spots. Some areas in Valencia, Alicante, Murcia, and the Balearic Islands are under yellow and orange weather warnings, particularly around Javea and Denia. Yellow alerts are also in place along the Strait of Gibraltar near Algeciras, Tarifa, and Sotogrande, with potential for choppy conditions affecting ferry crossings. While the southern parts of Andalucia may see mostly settled weather, eastern mountainous regions could still see showers. The warmth is anticipated to persist into the following week, with temperatures in many areas reaching 5-10ºC above the average for this time of year. This could make the official start of autumn on September 23 seem somewhat premature for many residents. Recent heavy rain and thunderstorms have given way to drier and warmer conditions. Early Saturday temperatures on the Costa del Sol were already around the mid-20s in some spots, with Marbella recording 25ºC in the early morning and Malaga at 23.5ºC at 5am. Residents can expect to once again reach for fans and air conditioning rather than bundling up in autumn clothes. While the forecast suggests more changeable conditions later in the week, particularly in northern Spain, the southern regions are expected to remain warmer. So, even if the calendar moves into autumn, the weather across much of Spain seems to have other plans.",
