Hot here means 37.5 °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 Zaragoza'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.
50 nights so far that never dropped below 20 °C, against 6.9 in a typical 1961-1990 summer by this date. That is 1st of its 76 summers.
Zaragoza's hottest day this year, 42.3 °C, is 7th on this record. The previous best is 44.5 °C in 2015, the dot on the drop line. A typical summer here peaks at 39.0 °C. Its hot-day count is the most on record by this date: a count and a peak are different claims, and neither borrows the other's rank.
