August started off with an already scorching first few days, but it seems this trend is set to continue on for the majority of the month. This summer has already proved to be one of the hottest ever recorded, with heat waves reaching recording breaking heights. Up until Thursday, temperatures will feel as if it is 41°C, reducing slightly up until Monday. Temperatures will still be considerably high however, with UV hitting the 9 and 10 marks across the board.
Facebook page ‘Malta Weather’ reported that this is expected to remain significantly above average at least until mid-August as a high ridge of pressure from Northern Africa makes its way towards the island. Sea temperature is set to even reach 31°C as the necessary precautions to stay hydrated and avoid the sun’s peak times are also called for by health authorities.
