ARCHIVED - Mercury will fall but temperatures remain high: Alicante weather May 23-26
Maximum temperatures could still reach 36ºC in Orihuela in the Vega Baja area of Alicante province
A weekend of sweltering highs as the mercury exceeded 37ºC in parts of Alicante province looks set to continue into Monday May 23, with the welcome addition of moderate winds, although temperatures will drop slightly as the week progresses in line with much of Spain.
According to the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet), most of the province can expect light cloud or clear skies and minimum temperatures will rise whilst maximums will fall inland, and increase slightly on the south coast.
- Alcoy: 18ºC (lows) 32ºC (highs)
- Alicante: 20ºC to 34ºC
- Denia: 20ºC to 31ºC
- Elche: 20ºC to 35ºC
- Orihuela: 20ºC to 36ºC
Light cloud on Tuesday morning, May 24, will become a bit more intense as the day progresses and scattered showers with occasional thunderstorms are expected in the northern half of the province. Temperatures will fall across the board, with locally significant drops in the highs. Moderate north and easterly winds are forecast on the coast; light to moderate further inland.

Light to moderate northerly winds will prevail in the morning along the coast giving way to east and southerly winds later on. Light variable winds are forecast elsewhere in the province.
