Hot here means 41.2 °C or above, a level about one summer day in twenty used to reach at this station between 1971 and 2000. 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 Seville'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.
53 nights so far that never dropped below 20 °C, against 13.5 in a typical 1961-1990 summer by this date. That is 2nd of its 76 summers.
Seville's hottest day this year, 43.2 °C, is 20th on this record. The previous best is 46.6 °C in 1995, the dot on the drop line. A typical summer here peaks at 42.2 °C. Its hot-day count is 4th of 76: a count and a peak are different claims, and neither borrows the other's rank.
42 cities are measured this way, each against its own record. See them on the map
