. The climatic information recorded by the physicianFrancisco Fernandez Navarrete in Granada (southern Spain) during thefirst third of the 18th century is analyzed in this work. His observationsare included in the book Cielo y suelo granadino ('Sky and soil inGranada'), and consist of qualitative comments relating climatic conditionsto illness and diseases from 1706 to 1730, as well as instrumentalobservations (using an “English barometer” and a “Florentinethermometer”) from December 1728 to February 1730. To the best of ourknowledge, these are the earliest instrumental observations recorded inSpain. An alternative methodology to Pfister indices, based on the frequencyof extreme events, was applied to study this new set of documentary data. Theanalysis shows that seasonal mean values of temperature and precipitationduring the period 1706–1730 were very similar to those of periods of similarlength at the beginning of the 20th century, such as 1906–1930. However,some years were especially extreme, such as the dry first half of the 1720sor the winter of 1728–1729 when a strong cold wave affected the city.
