The high temperatures will last until Thursday, January 4, according to the Spanish Meteorological Agency (Aemet). 

Eastern Malaga, including Rincon de la Victoria and Velez-Malaga will see the highest temperatures of 24-25C. 

Meanwhile, central areas such as Ronda and Antequera will remain around 18C. 

The mild weather will be followed by rain as experts predict a 100% chance of showers on Thursday. 

The rain will particularly affect Ronda and Valle del Guadalhorce. 

In Malaga capital, there is an 80% chance of rain. 

The wet weather will also cause a drop in temperatures to around 15-17C in Malaga capital and 9-12C in other areas. 

It will also bring winds of up to 20km/h. 

Nationally, the weather will follow a similar pattern. 

Spain’s Three Kings Day, on January 6, will see a ‘mass of arctic air’, leading to even lower temperatures throughout the country.
