Here is a list of the hottest and coldest temperature recorded in spain and is getting hotter.

On July 30, 1876 and August 4, 1881, temperatures of 123.8 °F (51 °C) and 122 °F (50 °C)[1] were both reported for Seville: these readings are unreliable, since they were measured under a standard exposure and in poor technical conditions.[2] A temperature of 119.8 °F (48.8 °C) was also recorded at Cazalla de la Sierra on August 30, 1926, but is generally not considered valid by international standards,[3] along with other unofficial readings measured in various locations, likely taken with not proper instruments.[4] On July 17, 1978, an unconfirmed temperature of 117.5 °F (47.5 °C) was recorded at Barranco de Masca, Tenerife.[5]
