Corpus Christi Festivities Begin as Summer Heat Settles In

Edition #154 of 365

The early June sun is finally finding its stride, and there is a real buzz in the air as we head into the Corpus Christi celebrations. Evenings are stretching out beautifully now, making it the perfect time to linger over tapas in a shaded plaza well after sunset.

Today's reading

On this day in Andalucía

Today marks the start of the historic Feria Taurina in Granada, a cornerstone of the city's Corpus Christi traditions.

Weather across the region

Expect clear skies across the region today. The Guadalquivir valley, including Sevilla and Córdoba, will see temperatures climbing towards 34 degrees Celsius, so stay hydrated. Coastal areas like the Costa del Sol are more temperate at 26 degrees thanks to sea breezes, while the Atlantic coast in Huelva feels wonderfully fresh. In the Sierra Nevada, the air remains crisp, providing a welcome relief for hikers before the peak summer heat truly arrives later this month.
