The city of Terrassa and its surrounding region will continue to experience high temperatures this weekend, with maximums exceeding 30 degrees Celsius and minimums not dropping below 20, according to meteorological forecasts.

The first heatwave of the summer has brought temperatures above average across the country, and Terrassa has been no exception. In the city, maximums of up to 37 degrees Celsius were recorded in Can Boada, while nights have been particularly hot, with minimums exceeding 21 degrees Celsius, qualifying as "tropical".
According to Ramon Navarro, a collaborator for MónTerrassa and a member of Meteoclimatic, "no changes are expected; we will continue to have dry weather and the same heat." This trend could extend until the Festa Major, although "small thermal oscillations" are anticipated.
Forecasts for the region indicate maximum temperatures ranging between 32 and 35 degrees Celsius on Saturday and Sunday, with minimums remaining between 20 and 23 degrees Celsius. Locations such as Matadepera, Viladecavalls, Vacarisses, and Castellbisbal will experience similar temperatures.
The Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya reminds the public of the importance of protecting their skin during the week of the solstice, as solar radiation is at its peak, even if suspended dust may slightly attenuate it. For Sunday, a slight increase in instability is expected across Catalonia, with possible showers being more likely in the western Pyrenees.
For those who wish to stay informed in real-time about meteorological conditions, especially if planning excursions to the Parc Natural de Sant Llorenç, it is recommended to consult websites such as Climameteoinfo (under the Matadepera – La Mola category), Meteoguilleries (La Mata – Sant Llorenç del Munt station), or the MeteoMuntanya application. For the coast, the Platges.cat application provides information on water conditions and temperature at Catalan beaches.
