Madrid sits on a high, dry plateau far from the coast, which gives it one of Europe's most extreme day-to-night temperature swings. A scorching afternoon can drop ten degrees or more by nightfall, so an evening plan needs different clothing than the midday one.

Seasons in Madrid

Summers are long, hot and dry, while winters are colder than most visitors expect for a Spanish capital, with sharp, clear nights. Spring and early autumn are generally the most pleasant stretches.

Frequently asked questions

How often is the forecast updated?
The live weather data refreshes several times a day, so you're always seeing the latest forecast for Madrid.

Is the 14-day forecast reliable?
The first few days are usually the most accurate. Further ahead, the forecast mainly shows a trend rather than the exact weather at a specific hour.

What should I check before heading outside?
Look at the combination of rain, wind and feels-like temperature. A short trip can handle a passing shower, but a longer walk or bike ride benefits from a more stable stretch of weather.
