Jer, all the weather sites I look at show no rain for Madrid this weekend. Oct 25-27. We arrive this Friday AM. Is this actually possible? We are headed to Cordoba / Sevilla Sunday -Wed. where it appears it will be somewhat warm and no rain, then Madrid Thursday and Friday again. Can you give me your best "guesstimate" on what we are looking at in terms of weather this coming week? Thanks for the info Jer.

NEVER BELIEVE A WEATHER FORECAST!!!

It has been cloudy/rainy, cold and downright nasty for the past week and although the weather sites may say no rain for this weekend in Madrid, always prep for the worst as October-November (fall in general) is very unpredictable here in Madrid.

Today clouds are in and out all day and a few slight showers.

Temp is 16-20 degrees Cel. but I guess your coming from Chicago that is an indian summer Big Grin

Saludos,

I use the same meteorological philosophy for Madrid that I used for S. California when I lived there. Ready....? Well, I'm going to tell you anyway: Red Face
quote:
Anyone who flunks out of weatherman/woman school is automatically sent to a city/climate where telling the weather is pretty easy to predict, no tornados, flash flooding, severe thunderstorms. I've always imagined telling weather in the U.K. for example to be probably the most repetitive job on the face of the earth: today it will rain, tomorrow it will rain....237 days, 12 hours, 6 minutes and 3.5 seconds from now it will still be raining!
Red Face Wink Big Grin :jeje: (Dedicated to all my British Pals here in Madrid: 'Dave, Nigel, Neil, etc...')

Fortunately Madrid isn't as extreme a case as the U.K., but for me, coming from Kansas, it's not much different. My point being, the weather people here weren't the tops in their classes from my viewpoint...Keep that in mind as you're checking out Madrid's weather forecast...


poseso.... Tony
