Rain in Malaga

There was no measurable rain during July, but a very light shower occurred around dawn on the 7th, and thick cloud on the morning of the 14th produced a few spots of rain.

Thunder

There were no reports of thunder in this part of west Malaga, but lightning was observed over the sea in the early hours of the 7th.

Wind

The wind pattern was fairly typical for a Summer month, with light northwesterly land breezes being replaced by gentle afternoon southeasterly sea breezes. However, there were several interesting wind ‘events’. On both the 19th and 20th dust devils, or mini-whirlwinds, developed as the sea breeze developed in the late mornings and moved over the weather station. Gusts of 26 and 29 knots (30-33 mph) were recorded respectively. On the 23rd, after a hot early part of the night with a temperature of 32 Celsius (90F) at midnight, the land breeze was replaced by a wind off the sea. The marked drop in temperature of 8 degrees Celsius (14F) was accompanied by a southeasterly gust of 32 knots (36 mph). The only other gust above 20 knots (23 mph) occurred with a northwesterly wind on the 13th.

Fog

There was no fog observed in west Malaga during July.
