On Wednesday 2nd September 2026, Carl Munson’s Good Morning Portugal! news leads with an intense heatwave, with temperatures expected to reach 42°C in several mainland regions, while Portugal’s onshore wind capacity has grown by 199 MW this year as the country pursues 2030 climate targets and net-zero emissions by 2045. 

Other headlines include a French mother seeking news of her 23-year-old son last seen in Lisbon 10 days ago, police investigating the death of a woman in an Albufeira hotel (partner detained), the book-voucher programme exceeding 52,000 vouchers, and growing opportunities for Portuguese companies in Ireland.
