I’m from Aragon (Spain) one of Europe’s warmest regions. In the last 15 years, July and August have been very hot with temperatures often exceeding 40 degrees. But not in June like in this heat wave.
While we’re far better equipped than the UK with air conditioning in homes, public transport and most other places, leaving the house becomes practically impossible before 9pm and nighttime temperatures rarely drop below 30 degrees.
I know many people that has moved to cooler parts of the country (Galicia, Basque Country, Asturias, Cantabria) or even abroad (I moved to London in 2025) due to the extreme heat.
Climate migration is likely to become more common but only the wealthiest will be able to afford it.
