Travelogue, and weather
We’ve been in Spain for almost six days so far, and for that whole time there’s been a heat wave: temperatures 5-10°C above normal, and “unhealthy” air quality (mostly PM10). I think the latter improved to “fair” yesterday, but is now back to “unhealthy”.
Today’s forecast calls for intermittent rain all day, with temperatures close to normal. Which is OK, because today is the day we’re spending largely in train stations and on trains. But it’ll be cooler still, and still intermittently rainy, for the next week as we visit Granada, the south coast, and Córdoba. On the bright side, perhaps the rain will wash some of the PM10’s out of the air.
Also, an air quality described as “very unhealthy”, dark red on the EU scale shown in the Weather app, is apparently in the yellow “moderate” zone on the US scale shown in Google Maps.
