Brits heading to Spain to bask in 44C this week with tourists urged to dodge booze – map shows hottest spots

BRITS heading to Spain this week will bask in glorious sunshine - but tourists have been urged to be cautious amid high temperatures. A map has revealed the hottest places in the country full of holiday hotspots - with the mercury soaring up to 44C in some places. 7 7 A scorching heatwave has now gripped Spain, set to last till the end of the week. Some spots are so hot that Spain's state forecaster Aemet was forced to issue weather warnings. Red and orange warnings have been issued across much of the nation. Aemet says maximum temperatures will continue to rise in parts of Southern and Eastern Spain. Most of the central part of the country will see the mercury dancing between 35C to 40C. The temperature will rise to 44C in Seville on August 12. While holiday spots like Gran Canaria, Tenerife and Lanzarote will see temperatures around 40C. Regions in Spain's far north will also see the mercury hit 40C. The weather alerts are expected to be lifted on August 14. Six items every UK driver should remove from cars this weekend Until then, Brits heading to bask in some glorious sunlight are advised to take extra care to avoid getting heatstroke. This is because tourists are more likely to end up in hospital during heatwaves than seasoned locals. One suggestion likely unpopular with Brits on their hols was to avoid alcohol - because it has a dehydrating effect on the body. The advice is to drink water often, even if you're not thirsty, and avoid both alcohol and caffeine. It was also recommended to "dress smart", which means wearing loose-fitting clothes - particularly cotton or linen if possible. Heatwave advice for Brits on holiday While warmer weather can be fun, it is important to stay safe and avoid over heating - here are some other top tips to stay safe in the sun Wear clothes and sunglasses that provide sun protection The NHS website recommends wearing a hat that that shades the face, neck and ears and breathable fabrics that do not let the sunlight through. Drink water Staying hydrated in the warmer weather is also important. Be sure to carry a water bottle with you if you are travelling and taking sips throughout the day. Use suncream According to the NHS webiste, adults should aim to apply around 6 to 8 teaspoons of sunscreen if you're covering your entire body. If sunscreen is applied too thinly, the amount of protection it gives is not as effective If you're worried you might not be applying enough SPF30, you could use a sunscreen with a higher SPF. Lighter colours reflect the sun so can help you to stay cool. Another point is to simply stay indoors during times of peak temperatures, and certainly to avoid any strenuous activity under the sun. The authorities also issued a reminder about the signs of heatstroke, so people know when they need to find help. Fatigue, dizziness, headaches, confusion and nausea are all common symptoms of heatstroke, which, in severe cases, can be fatal. Houses should be shuttered up during the day, it was advised, but windows and vents opened at night to allow a cooling airflow. 7 7 7 7

The day's sunshine will retreat behind cloud for the band taking to the stage, but a 21C temperature will still be on offer at 8pm in the capital. Forecaster Greg Dewhurst said: "The fourth summer heatwave begins as temperatures rise quite widely across England and Wales in particular. "It won't be quite as hot across parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland. "We are looking at the mid-30's over the next few days, with something less hot by the time we get to the end of the week." He said the heat in the south will creep north tomorrow to allow Scots to share in the balmy conditions. Hottest spots include Glasgow and Aviemore, where 26C is possible. Mr Dewhurst added: "There should be plenty of hazy sunshine across many parts. "Early rain across Orkney and Shetland will also clear, so most places will be dry with the risk of one or two thunderstorms.
