NOVEMBER in Spain will see a sharp contrast to the weather experienced in October, with temperatures plummeting and rainfall from this Saturday – the first of the month – onwards.
Starting from the north-west, a cold front entering the mainland via Galicia will bring chilly winds throughout the country and heavy rain.
The first snows will be seen on the highest mountain peaks, says the State meteorological agency AEMET, from around 1,200 metres above sea-level and beyond.
Very heavy rain across the mainland and Balearics is expected to strike this coming Tuesday, November 4, but over the weekend will only hit Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria and the Pyrénées, although light showers may be felt in the Canary Islands.
A sharp drop in temperatures, probably by at least 10ºC, will bring the climate down to the usual level for the time of year, says the Met office.
