Seville is the fourth largest city in Spain after Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia with a population of around 703,206. It is the financial, cultural and artistic capital of Southern Spain.
The city of Seville is located on the River Guadalquivir and the average elevation is about7 metres above sea level.
Climate nowadays
At present, due to the influence from the Mediterranean Sea and the continental location, Seville has a Mediterranean climate with hot summers and low annual precipitation.
As a matter of fact, Seville is one of the warmest cities in Europe as the average temperature of the city during the year is roughly 18.6 °C (65 °F).
Winters are mild in Seville, but still the average temperature could be as high as 15.9 °C and the lowest temperature has never been below zero. Among the months in winter, January is the coldest.
In summer, Seville is damn hot. The hottest month is June. The average temperature is 35.3 °C and there must be a moment it can successfully exceed 40 °C.
During October to April, finally the city can enjoy some rainfall. December could be the wettest month.
Climate by the end of century
If the year of 2012 is the end of the world, then we don't have to worry about things by the end of the century; however, if that is just a guess in the movie, what will happen then? According to the scientific research from Spain's national weather office Aemet, by the end of the century, Seville is going to become as hot as Tucson which is city in America with a desert climate and only two major seasons.
It is a prediction not only about Seville but the whole Spain. At that time, the ecosystem in Spain will be affected seriously as a lot of plants or agricultural species at present probably can not survive under such a high temperature. We can introduce new species which can adapt to the heat but there are sectors which is impossible to go through it such as ski stations.
With the expansion of desertification, Spain will continue to be the driest country in Europe.
