Google, Amazon and Microsoft have been burning absurd amounts of money in Ia for years. Finally they begin to see green sprouts

by

The AI boom made Big Tech will increase their capital spending to limits that had never been seen. The fear that The bubble will explode Rondaba, investors They started to get nervous and the profitability of AI remains in doubt. The last results are a green outbreak, the first in a long time, although with many buts. The cloud reaches capex. They tell it in The Information. Capital or Capex expenses of the Big Tech in recent years have climbed unstoppable, much faster than their income, but in the results of the last quarter the gap is finally closing, but not because chatbots and other products are being profitable, but thanks to revenue from cloud services. The crazy one is committed to AI is beginning to show a slight green outbreak, even if it is not directly because of AI products. Income from cloud services are approaching capital spending. Source: The Information (click on the image to access X) The four riders. There are two clear winners of the departure, one that already brought the duties done and one that goes free. Let’s see who is who: Microsoft: The clear winner with a Income increase of 25% In the last quarter, mainly thanks to the growth of Microsoft Azure. Google: Record a 20% increase In your income thanks to Google Cloud and advertising. Amazon: falls 7%but it is the only one that was in positive numbers. Amazon Web Services is the largest provider of cloud services and was already profitable, although its growth is beginning to slow down. Goal: Your income grows 22%but they basically come from advertising. Goal does not sell cloud services, so it does not generate income directly. Indirectly, yes: AI has allowed them Improve the efficiency of your advertising business. Burning money. The increase in capex by AI has reached madness figures that had never been seen in other technological booms. By the end of 2024 we talked about investing a real barbarity In data centers: Microsoft 30,000 million, Goal 35,000 million, Google 25,000 million… The dizziness figures, and have not stopped increasing. Amazon said at the beginning of the year that He wanted to spend 100,000 million in data centers for AI and goal is building several data centers whose combined cost could rise to 200,000 million dollars. Skepticism. This excessive spending frenzy soon unleashed a wave of skepticism. AND If AI is another bubble And is it about to explode? Milmillionaire investments are not translating in income. Even Satya Nadella himself, one of the protagonists of this revolution, was skeptical because At the moment no one is making gold with AI. It is not that they are not making gold, it is that nobody is earning money. In their newsletter, Ed Zitron had accounts And the difference between what is expected to spend in 2025 and the return that is giving them the AI is not that it is a reason to doubt, it is directly no sense: Capex planned in 2025 BENEFITS IN IA IN 2025 Microsoft 80,000 million 13,000 million Google 75,000 million 7.7 billion Amazon 105,000 million 5,000 million goal 72,000 million 3,000 million Green outbreak Yes, in singular. The latest results are hopeful, but we are very far from being able to say that AI is a profitable business, especially As far as generative AI is concerned. Good results are thanks to cloud services, chatbots or audio or video generators are not profitable. Subscriptions to these tools are a way to monetize, but The income they generate is child compared to spending. Despite doubts, unbridled expense has not stopped and this green outbreak can be more than enough for investors to continue throwing banknotes to the AI well.

How to install Openai’s new Got-Oss models on your computer to have your own chatgpt at home

by

OpenAi has announced New models Open Source that anyone can download and install on their computer: GPT-Oss. With these already on the street, it is an excellent opportunity to start stirring with the The premisesthat is to say, Executed on our computerso today we are going to teach you to install and use them. Differences between the two models Although they are called in a similar way, GPT-Oss-120B and GPT-Oss-20B are not exactly the same nor have the same requirements. The first model, GPT-Oss-120b, reaches a parity near OpenAi O4-mini and requires at least 60 GB of graphic memory. Having your own chatgpt at home is easy, but it requires a team at height | Image: Xataka His little brother, GPT-Oss-20B, is somewhat less capable (similar to O3-mini, according to OpenAI), but can be executed on devices Edge. In other words, it can be executed on your own computer whenever it has at least 16 GB of memory, preferably graphic. In summary: GPT-Oss-120b: Large model, need at least 60 GB of vram or unidicada memory and is not suitable for consumer computers. GPT-Oss-20b: smaller model, need 16 GB of vram or unified memory and is suitable for consumer computers. The one we are going to use, for obvious reasons, is GPT-Oss-20b. Considerations to take into account Executing an AI like in local is an intensive process that can cause, and surely cause, that your computer slows down a lot. Although you could execute it having 16 GB of RAM, the ideal is that your team has A high -end GPU. What will happen if your computer has less than 16 GB of vram memory? Than the tool will use RAMwhose figure must be equal to or greater than 16 GB. If not, the system will not work properly. As a general recommendation, the ideal is to dedicate all the possible resources of your computer to the execution of the model, so it closes everything that is not strictly necessary. Install Ollama on your computer OLLAMA Installation | Image: Xataka For this tutorial we will use a well -known application: Ollama. It is an Open Source platform that simplifies, and much, the installation, access and use of LLMS (Large Language Models). Let’s say he is an executor of models. Chatgpt is an online platform through which we interact with a model, such as GPT-4O. Ollama is the same, But at home and with the models we have installed on our computer. It is a free, open source software and available for Windows, Mac and Linux. Download GPT-Oss Once we have downloaded and installed the program on our computer we will find an interface like this. If you wish, you can also use ancient ollama through the Command interfacebut the truth is that the graphic interface is much more pleasant. Main interface of Ollama | Image: Xataka If we look, we will see a drop -down in the lower right area with the name of the model we are using or that, rather we will use. Access to the different AI models from Ollama | Image: Xataka If we click on the drop -down we can access a good handful of models, such as Deepseek R1, Gemma either Qwen. In the case, we are interested in selecting “GPT-Oss: 20b“ Download of the model, armate of patience | Image: Xataka Having selected “GPT-Oss: 20B”, it will be enough to send a message in the chat to begin the download of the model. At patience, because it weighs 12.8 GB and can take a while. Talking to GPT-Oss-20b through Ollama | Image: Xataka Once it is installed, you can start talking with AI as if it were Chatgpt. Of course, if your GPU does not meet the minimum requirements you will see that it is much slower than chatgpt. Not surprisingly, you are running the model on your computer, not in a data macrocenter full of the latest in Dedicated Gpus of Nvidia. Another option: LM Studio Lm Studio | Image: Xataka Ollama has the advantage of being intuitive, simple and direct. If we want more options, a much more complete program is LM Studio. This is available for Windows, Linux and Mac and, as Ollama, is able to manage several models, GPT-Oss: 20b among them. It is a more advanced application that allows us to better adjust both the behavior of our computer and that of the model, although squeezing it to the maximum requires more advanced knowledge.

His model is not only powerful and free, but it has cost much less

by

Openai yesterday launched its first models with open weights since 2019: GPT-Oss-120B and GPT-Oss-20B. Two reasoning systems that mark a radical change in the company’s strategy after Deepseek R1’s success At the beginning of the year. Why is it important. Openai has gone from defending the safety of closed models to recognize that “it was on the wrong side of history” with open models. The earthquake that caused Deepseek In January he forced them to rethink their entire strategy. The context. Until now, Openai had kept all its models closed since GPT-2justifying it for security reasons. But rivals as a goal with Calls And especially Chinese companies with Depseek, Qwen and Kimi They have gained ground in the open ecosystem. The turning point came when Depseek R1 showed that it was possible to create advanced reasoning models with a fraction of the cost of Americans. Sam Altman then admitted that Openai needed “finding a different open source strategy.” And here it is. In figures: The major model, GPT-Oss-120bworks at a single 80 GB GPU with just 5,100 million active parameters of its 117,000 million total. His little brother, GPT-Oss-20bit can be executed in a laptop with 16 GB of memory (although the speed seems to be very slow with such a configuration, in the absence that we can try it more thoroughly). The current situation. The Benchmarks independent They place GPT-Oss-120b with a score of 58 in the intelligence indexsurpassing O3-mini but being below O3 and O4-mini. In competitive programming tasks it reaches 2622 points in Codeforces, while Depseek R1 achieves less score with a much heavier model. In detail. Architecture uses a system of Mix of experts (Moe, Mixture of experts) that activates only a fraction of the total parameters for each consultation. This allows the 120,000 million model of parameters to activate only 4.4% in each consultation, while the 20,000 million activates 17.2%. Both models maintain chain reasoning ability without direct supervision, following the principle that visible reasoning is necessary to detect undue behaviors. Yes, but. OpenAI has not made public training data, maintaining part of the secret. Nor does it include multimodal capabilities, limited only to text. Hallucinations are significantly higher than in their own models: 49% and 53% respectively compared to 16% of O1. Between the lines. This launch responds to both Chinese competitive pressure and the new Trump administration, which has urged US companies to release more technology to “promote the global adoption of aligned with American values.” The company has worked with partners such as Orange, Snowflake and AI Sweden for real use cases, seeking to validate whether the advantages justify continuing to invest in open models. Deepen. The models are available under Apache 2.0 license on platforms such as Hugging Facewith native support in tools such as Ollama, LM Studio and Services Cloud of the main suppliers. Openai has organized a network Teaming Challenge with $ 500,000 in prizes to identify security risks. This is OpenAi’s response to his Deepseek moment: recognizing that open innovation is not only inevitable, but necessary to stay competitive in a panorama where cost and accessibility matter as much as performance.

install a nuclear reactor on the moon before China and Russia create its exclusion zone

by

The Space race has warm upthis time in the heat of a nuclear reactor on the surface of the moon. And as already happened in the 60s, the urgency is not scientific, but fundamentally geopolitical. The Duffy directive. The break between Elon Musk and Donald Trump trunciated Jared Isaacman’s career as future NASA administrator. The current acting administrator of the Space Agency, Sean Duffy, is in turn Trump’s Secretary of Transportation, faithful to the priorities of the White House. In a movement that will mark the priorities of the agency, Duffy has launched an accelerated plan to build a small nuclear power plant on the moon. The directive urges NASA to have a satellite functional reactor by 2030. Why 2030. The main motivation is get ahead of the Chinese and Russia Alliance to build your own lunar reactor. “We are in a race towards the moon, a race with China. And to have a base on the moon, we need energy,” Duffy explained In a later press conference. The fear of Washington is explicit in the directive itself: “The first country to do so could declare an exclusion zone, which would significantly limit the United States for establishing the Presence of Artemis If I will not arrive first. “ A new plan. NASA was already working on a project called Fission Surface Power (FSP) with the intention of installing a 40 kW reactor on the surface of the moon at the beginning of the next decade. The new directive, published entirely By NASA Watch, raise the bet to a more efficient Bryton cycle turns and a minimum power of 100 kW. The dates are also more ambitious. The United States government requires NASA to be installed for the first 2030 quarter using a launch system of at least 15 tons of capacity. The reactor and all transportation logistics and installation will be open to the American private industry through a future public tender. More astronauts, less science. Nuclear energy will be crucial for any manned lunar base. The moon has a day and night cycle of approximately 29.5 terrestrial days, which means that any type of lunar colony faces two weeks of icy darkness. Solar energy is unfeasible to feed the life support equipment and heating that will keep astronauts alive. A fission reactor, on the other hand, would provide a constant and reliable source of energy. This Directive is the first important movement of Sean Duffy as an acting administrator, and reflects the change of course that began the 2026 Budgets of the White House: an increase in the funds for human exploration of deep space, especially if they can prevent China from getting to Marsand cuts of up to 50% in purely scientific areasincluding many of the probes that study the solar system.

The US believes to have the definitive solution to prevent its avant -garde chips for China

by

Despite the efforts you are making The US government to avoid itthe avant -garde GPU for artificial intelligence (AI) that produce nvidia, AMD or brains They continue to arrive in China. Controlling secondary markets and parallel import routes is extremely difficult, especially when they run through countries such as India, Malaysia or Singapore, in which The US action It is very limited. This is the reason why, According to Bloombergthe US Department of Commerce, which is responsible for regulating exports, is considering starting an unpublished strategy. This measure will consist, if it finally comes to fruition, to introduce the technology necessary to allow them to be tracked at all times. A priori would be a form of geolocation that would identify where each integrated circuit resides during its journey once it leaves the semiconductor factory. This strategy raises technical challenges Michael Kratsios, the director of the Office of Scientific and Technological Policy of the White House and one of those responsible for the US government’s action plan for the development of AI, has confirmed that are considering the possibility of introducing tracking solutions both implemented in the hardware and software itself: “We are discussing what software or physical changes could be introduced into the chips themselves to improve the tracking of their location.” The constant tracking by GPS is not practical in this scenario of use, according to Kratsios himself The US administration is determined to protect its current leadership in the development of hardware for AI as the adoption of this technology accelerates throughout the planet. However, implement the solution proposed by Kratsios and other White House advisors It implies important technical challenges. Constant tracking by GPS is not practical in this scenario of use, According to Kratsios himselfso a possible solution is to introduce in each chip the logic necessary to confirm its location periodically. In this way, external networks can be reduced. The problem is that this design increases the complexity of the logic of each chip and can presumably impact its performance, which would penalize its productivity in the calculation centers. In addition, the cost of each GPU will increase and hackers They could find new ways to violate the safety of these chips by resorting to possible weaknesses of tracking logic. All probability to Nvidia, AMD, Intel and other designers and chips manufacturers for this measure will not like them. They will hardly introduce a logic that will make them more vulnerable and make them more vulnerable. His problem is that so far in this area the US government has adopted a little conciliatory position. And it does not seem that your attitude will change.

Cantabria feared to become “La Ibiza del Norte”. For his horror, he already has “the Magaluf del Norte”

by

There are slogans that pass without penalty or glory and others that capture such an idea that end up rooting or even (in networks) viral. It happened little over a yearwhen Thousands of Cantabrians They went out to protest against the Tourist From his community to the shout of “We do not want to be the Northern Ibiza!” Now the controversy returns to the same region before another threat that has been summarized in an equally powerful phrase: there are those who warn that one of its most famous sand, the strut, runs the risk of becoming “The Magaluf del Norte”. The debate is served. A place: El Puntal Beach. Cantabria has 284 kilometers of coast, but few places in that large coastal strip are as emblematic as the beach of The Puntalin Somo (Ribomontán to the sea), in the middle of Santander Bay. The space is included in the Natura 2000 Network Within the dunes of El Puntal and the Estario of Miera, which stands out for its 49 plant formations. Twenty of them are also priority and the area of special interest is distributed in the area. A word: Megabotellón. Despite that environmental value and being a Protected spacethe sand becomes sometimes a great Botellodrome. People are in the area and the beach becomes an outdoor parties space. It is nothing new. It has happened relatively frequently during the summer months of recent years. In July 2020in full pandemic, the Civil Guard imposed dozens of complaints after evicting a bottle With hundreds of young people. And in August last year it happened Something similarwith a Macrobotellón that brought together thousands of young people who left in their path a lot of garbage. And what happened? That the story It has been repeated again. A few weeks ago the sand was filled with thousands of young people who crowded the beach and left long tails to move by boat from Santander. It is not necessary to imagine it. The local press and The networks They spread images of a strut to the flag, a massive party that the mayor of Ribamontán to the sea, Francisco Asón, watched with impotence. “We are in contact with the Civil Guard because they have already warned us that this is the hecatombe,” I recognized To the EFE agency. Party … And something else. The problem is not just saturation. Much of the controversy causes it what leaves behind: bags, cans, bottles … a large amount of garbage scattered on the sand, as a Cantabrist denunciation, which the next day visited the same beach to show in A video dirt. The recording speaks for itself. “The bottles in the strut begins to be unsustainable. We cannot look elsewhere while deteriorating one of the most beautiful and fragile environments of the bay,” Crows Daniel Fernández, socialist spokesman in Santander. Click on the image to go to Tweet. “Bottle, noise and dirt”. In recent days the controversy has been climbing with reproaches of political parties, institutions and environmentalists. At the end of July several counselors of the Government of Cantabria and the mayor of Ribamontán to the sea sent A letter To the Government delegate to claim that it ends the “mass and illegal” concentrations, parties that, “fill with bottles, noise and dirt a protected space.” The situation seemed relax Last weekend, but that has not prevented more and more voices from asking for solutions. One of the most overwhelming is that of Ecologists in Action, which warns of the situation of El Puntal, its “irreparable footprints” and the “risk” that the bottles represent. “A natural space turned into a shitwith bottles, plastics, food remains and butts dispersed by the sand “, emphasize The organization before crossing out “inadmissible” that the authorities allow the beach to become “a landfill.” “It is not a recreational space without norms, it is a public good of high environmental value whose conservation is a collective duty. It is not enough to send a cleaning team the next day. That does not repair the damage,” he remarks. The northern Magaluf? Just like a year ago Voices were heard rejecting that Cantabria becomes “the North Ibiza”, in recent days those that compare the situation of El Puntal with MagalufMallorca beach wrapped in controversy for the videos that show The excesses with drugs or sex in public spaces. “They have turned a protected area into the Magaluf del Norte”, complaint Cantabrist “Hundreds of tourists come to our natural environments to use them as their private club and turn them into landfills.” They are not the only ones that point in that direction. The PSOE He has claimed Measures to protect the coast “Ante Avalachas” such as El Puntal and speaks of “more than 4,000 people from Botón”. United Left too He has demanded that all administrations meet to “put an end to lack of control” in the Arenal, a measure that proposes to extend to other natural spaces in the region. “Cantabria is fashionable”. Not all institutions share the tone or focus the focus on the same point. The regional president, María José Sáenz de Buruaga, considers “a serious irresponsibility to alert tourism phobia” and asks not to transmit “a distorted image” of what happens in the community. “Cantabria is fashionable and lives a splendid and excellent moment. We are not the Northern Ibiza. Much less Magaluf,” the leader emphasizes in statements collected by eldiario.es. His executive claims to the Government Delegation that reinforces the controls. “It must act when there is a security problem.” Images | Cantabrist 1 and 2 and Federico Jordá (Flickr) In Xataka | The north of Spain has been complaining about mass tourism for years.

Psychologists see something much deeper

by

Look at the next one you go to restaurant or cafeteria with family or friends. When the waiter approaches to remove the dishes to serve the next dish or because the food is over, someone from the table, spontaneously and instinctively, will bring the dishes or group them even before the waiter arrives to facilitate the task. It is an almost imperceptible gesture for most, but according to the psychologist Francisco Tabernerothis common and spontaneous gesture can reveal much more information than it may seem. “That simple gesture of helping the waiter means several things,” says Tabernero. Not only is good education Beyond being a gesture of good education, the act of carrying out in an selfless and spontaneous way a collaborative action with the waiter shows two personality traits Main very well defined. Tabernero points out that, on the one hand, “to provide selfless help to the waiter denotes a feature of empathy”, which manifests “simply by altruism.” This behavior can be considered a sign of what psychologists call prosocial attitude. That is, voluntary behaviors that benefit other people without seeking any direct compensation or recognition. People who help collect the table at the end of a meal can be demonstrating internal capacities such as empathy, humility and social responsibility, which often do not look at first sight but have a significant weight, even in the professional environment. Although The studies carried out On this type of behavior attribute a good part of the merit to the acquired habits and parental modeling, evidence is also collected that this type of behavior connects directly with an active understanding of others’ effort. Assertiveness and social judgment deficit Similarly, Tabernero emphasizes that this behavior can also demonstrate a type of passive type assertiveness, which “causes excessive fear of the negative evaluation of others. It is trait is observed in people who are excessively service with both their acquaintances and their strangers.” According to the psychologist, “sometimes it is no longer just that altruistic gesture, but also a need to please and avoid being negatively evaluated. It is a need to ‘be well seen’”. What all recruiters are looking for: team spirit The expert also recognizes some prosocial behavior features represented in the proactive initiative of collaborating with the waiter to make his contribution to the work that occupies his attention at that time (collecting the table) is carried out With the greatest speed and efficiency possible, showing implication even when it is a foreign task. This collaborative attitude is included among those that have been called Soft skills or soft skills that are every time they are taking A greater prominence in personnel recruitment. A METAESTUDIO collected in the Journal of Applied Psychology He concluded that employees who They show prosocial behaviors They consistently improve productivity and reinforce the environment in work teams. The study collects data from more than 9,800 multiple sectors employees and reveals that these types of gestures generate less internal tensions and greater cohesion within the equipment, so they are highly valued profiles by companies According to a published workby the Harvard Business School“The teams with the largest number of employees acting on their own initiative for the benefit of the group showed a 16% increase in productivity levels and 12% in internal cohesion indicators.” However, Tabernero points out that, in this case, the action of collaborating to collect the table may be more linked to a previous condition of the person (being very restless or nervous) that leads to everything that happens around him must be done immediately, that not of a conscious and premeditated attitude of collaborating with the waiter or helping him to be more efficient in his work.

DDR6 memories promise a new era for the PC. And also a new way of riding them

by

The next generation of RAM memories It is getting closer. While we continue adapting to DDR5the industry It already works at full speed in the DDR6, which promise to double the current performance and arrive in a novel format for the domestic user. Under these lines we wanted to collect everything we know about this new version so far. Vertigo speeds. DDR6 do not promise a simple evolution. And they will also offer a radical change in memory architecture. With Minimum speeds of 8,800 mt/s According to the Jedec standard and the possibility of reaching 17,600 mt/s, they practically double the performance of the current DDR5. Samsung, Micron and Sk Hynix They have already passed the prototype phase and work together with Intel, AMD and NVIDIA in the validation processes. THE SECRET OF THE PERFORMANCE. The key is in The new 4 × 24-bit sub-channel architecturecompletely different from the 2 × 32-bit structure of DDR5. This change allows to manage more data simultaneously, but also introduces new challenges in the integrity of the signal. Jedec is evaluating the use of NRZ standard (Non-back to zero) For communications, abandoning the current PAM system that already shows limitations with the highest speeds of DDR5. Goodbye to traditional modules. Here comes the most visual change: DDR6 is likely adopt the CAMM2 formatwhere the modules are placed in parallel to the motherboard instead of perpendicular such as the Dimm and So-Dimm of a lifetime. This modification has its explanation. And it is that the current Topology of the memory slots generates interference that limit the maximum speed up to 400 mt/s. CAMM2 eliminates these problematic welded connections and transfers signal management to the module itself. A change when setting up a PC. The change of format involves completely redesigning the motherboards, but opens new possibilities. CAMM2 connectors could be located at the back of the plate, allowing more compact factors. Although initially require several screws for their fastening, Jedec works on installation systems without tools. In parallel, everything indicates that we will see more portable and Mini PCs with Solded memory directly (something increasingly common today), sacrificing the ability to expand for better performance. In a few years. The deadlines are more or less clear. The validation of platforms will begin in 2026, they will reach servers in 2027 and the availability for consumers is expected to be between 2028 and 2029. This staggering is similar to that with DDR5, but analysts predict faster adoption in artificial intelligence environments and high performance computing. Everything indicates that the initial prices will also remember those of DDR5 in 2021, limiting early adoption to data centers and research laboratories. What comes after. DDR6 will not only offer more speed: they promise greater energy efficiency and higher capabilities thanks to New NAND chips in development. For players and content creators, it will mean more bandwidth for work loads that involve AI and demanding applications. However, this evolution will require new motherboard, compatible processors and a different way of mounting a PC.

The most terrifying figure is 31.3º

by

The State Meteorology Agency (AEMET) has reviewed the meteorology last July. We are accustomed to reading on maximum temperatures, extreme rainfall or fast wind gusts, but perhaps the most striking data last month is elsewhere: the minimum temperatures. 31.3º Celsius. We are not talking about the absolute minimum temperature reached last month (the 0.7º Celsius registered in Cap de Vaquèira, Lleida, they have little remarkable), but of the highest minimum temperature of the month. On Thursday 17, the thermometer of the Agüimes station, in Gran Canaria, did not fall from 31.3º. The event occurred during a warm event which affected large areas of Gran Canaria in the middle of last month. During this event, the forecasts indicated maxims of 40º, something rare in the islands, and led Aemet to activate a red notice due to extreme risk on the island. Tropical nights, equatorial nights. The problem of high minimum temperatures has been persistent this summer. There have been numerous occasions and wide geographical areas where the night drop in the thermometers has not been enough to let us stand properly. There are several terms that we use in these contexts, such as tropical nights, referring to the nights in which temperatures do not lower the 20º; and the Equatorial or Torrid Nightsin which it does not get off the 25th. However, in some places, the problem has gone even further, with mercutes that did not even go down from the 30th. Ensure rest. Reconciling sleep at these temperatures is a difficult task if there is no Fan or air conditioning assistanceso our nighttime rest suffers. That is why, although maximum temperatures usually call our attention more, high minimum temperatures may also be problems. A worrying trend. Of course, this is a problem that, if the forecasts continue to be fulfilled, will go worse, not only in the long term as a consequence of climate change, also during this month of August that opens with a heat wave that It still affects To a good part of the Peninsula. The present heat wave It is also bringing high minimum temperatures. Tonight, for example, it is expected that they do not fall from the 20th in various areas of the country, and they will be able to stay above 25 in areas of the Mediterranean, of the southern peninsular half, in the depressions of the Northeast, or even in areas of the northern peninsular, on the plateau and in Galicia. Not just heat. The new statistics published by the Agency also mention the maximum absolute temperature registered in Spain in July, the 43.3º observed in Granado, Huelva, on Tuesday, July 1, in the first of the heat waves recorded this summer. The agency’s data also included data that describes the intensity of the tormentous episodes seen in the middle of the month, such as gusts of up to 133 km/h registered in Caspe, Zaragoza, on the 10th; or the 155.4 mm of rain collected on the 12th in Vilafranca del Penedés, Barcelona. A striking fact if we consider that in the Catalan town, 216.4 mm were collected throughout the month; That is, more than 70% of monthly rainfall in the town occurred in one day.
