Heat Palma · PALMA, PUERTO · to 8 August 2026

17 hot days so far, 2nd of Palma's 49 summers.

Correction

Until 11 August this page called 2026 Palma's most, measured against a bar this station could not support: our threshold uses a city's own July and August temperatures from 1971 to 2000, and Palma's record starts in 1978, so seven of those thirty years do not exist here. A part-length window drawn from the cooler end set the bar too low. Palma now uses the complete 1991 to 2020 normal, and the bar rises from 33.0 °C to 33.6 °C.

What changed is the bar, not any temperature we had already recorded.

Palma is compared against 1991-2020, not 1961-1990. This thermometer starts in 1978, so the earlier window every other city uses would cover only its warmer final years here, and a figure against that would look like every other city's while meaning something weaker. 1991-2020 is complete for this station, so it is the one shown. The count and the rank are measured on the full record and stand.

Hot here means 33.6 °C or above, a level about one summer day in twenty used to reach at this station between 1991 and 2020. The percentile thresholds on this page are computed over this period. Where it is not the default 1971-2000, the city's record does not cover that window and a complete later WMO normal is used instead, which yields a HIGHER threshold and so understates rather than overstates. The bar has not moved; the number of days clearing it has. Every year is counted to 8 August, so a part-finished summer is never set against complete ones. That threshold is Palma's own. It is not a national standard and it is not comparable with another city's: every figure on this page is measured against this station and nothing else.

64 nights so far that never dropped below 20 °C. That is 3rd of its 49 summers.

Palma's hottest day this year, 35.2 °C, is 17th on this record. The previous best is 38.0 °C in 2003, the dot on the drop line. A typical summer here peaks at 34.0 °C. Its hot-day count is 2nd of 49: a count and a peak are different claims, and neither borrows the other's rank.
