The change of time
The peak of temperatures arrived this Thursday and the week will close by saying goodbye to the mass of warm air that has maintained the almost spring values in these last days. This is what the forecast of the Meteorological Service of Catalonia (Meteocat) indicates, which shows a Friday day with a slight drop in thermometers. The day will be cloudy and foggy, but the atmosphere will remain not far from 20 degrees.

Temperature record
Despite the fact that this Thursday we reached the peak of unusual temperatures for this time of year, we cannot speak of a record. It was January 28, 2021 at the Ebro Observatory when 28.0 °C was reached. That same day, a maximum of 26.7 °C was recorded in Ulldecona. This Thursday, however, the highest temperature was 25.4 °C in Anglès (la Selva).
