Fox News
Spain is expecting another year of heatwaves and forest fires after officially entering a period of long-term drought. The country is geographically prone to high temperatures.
"The first available predictions for the summer of 2023 point to a likely situation of temperatures once again above normal," said Aemet spokesman Rubén del Campo, adding that the coming summer "the risk of fires could be very high given the high temperatures."
But Del Campo pointed out that the country has experienced severe droughts before in 2017, 2005 and at the end of the 1990s and 1980s.
