The Valencian Community faces a weekend with rising temperatures expected to exceed 30 °C in several regions, while beaches fill with bathers and a high risk of forest fires remains.

Temperatures in the Valencian Community will continue their upward trend over the coming days. After a Saturday where thermometers already neared 30 °C, it is expected that between Sunday and Monday this barrier will be surpassed in regions such as Ribera Alta, Costera, Vall d'Albaida, and Canal de Navarrés.
The Valencian sky will be practically clear this Sunday, with daytime cloud development in the northern third's interior, where occasional showers with thunderstorms are not ruled out in the afternoon. Along the coast, intervals of low clouds are expected. By Monday, some inland areas could reach 32 degrees, an unusually high figure for April.
This temperature increase is already reflected on the Valencian beaches, which are experiencing a large influx of locals and tourists. Beaches such as those in Benicàssim, Benidorm, Santa Pola, and València are crowded with people enjoying the good weather.
Furthermore, the pre-emergency level for forest fires is high in a large part of the Valencian Community this Sunday. Specifically, the province of València and the north of Alacant present an elevated risk.
