Western areas will be slightly cooler, with temperatures between 27 and 31 degrees. After noon, some cumulonimbus clouds may form, bringing short thunderstorms and rain. Winds will be stronger, blowing from the west and northwest at moderate strength.

Tuesday and Wednesday will remain very warm. Tuesday night will see temperatures of 16-21 degrees, with daytime highs of 26-31 degrees. Some areas may experience heavier thunderstorms. On Wednesday, nighttime temperatures will drop to 14-19 degrees, while daytime highs will range from 22 to 27 degrees, reaching 30 degrees in some places. Nights and days will see more frequent thunderstorms, with stronger winds bringing a noticeable cooldown, according to the synoptician.

From Thursday onwards, the intense heat will subside, with daytime temperatures ranging from 21 to 26 degrees and nighttime temperatures between 15 and 19 degrees. Rain will contribute to the cooler conditions.
