In Spain It is very easy to have sunny weather in November, but just in the south and the east parts of the country. In the rest of Spain, November usually is wet and cloudy, either in Madrid, where I live.

Here, off course we have different seaseons: fall usually is cool and wet. Winters normally are cold (sometimes very cold) and dry. Last winter was not especially cold (but november was colder than normal with somedays of -7/-9ÂºC, not a particullary warm weather. Spring can be very variable, sometimes is cool, sometimes is warm, sometimes is wet (I even remember a year with snow in April). Summer is so hot and dry.

If you think all Spain has the same sun and warm weather, I recomend you going in winter to some places as Burgos, Soria, Leon or Vitoria and you will see colder temperatures than you have ever seen in any part of England. Go also to some parts of Galicia, Asturias and País Vasco and you will see day after day cloudy and rainny, no so different than the weather of your country.

Personally, I don’t like Madrid weather at all. For me, it is too much dry, too much hot in the summer to be comfortable. I preffere cold weather.

Hi, to all those you have sung from the rafters regarding the perpetual ‘blue’. I can’t thank you enough, here in Vigo, which has had the lowest rainful in Spain, it’s now bucketing down cats and dogs! Just goes to show the ‘commentators curse’ really does work!

Had a sky like that over Barnsley on Wednesday – then it struck me – its the same sky, the difference is in the clouds – which were back by teatime

That is one thing I noticed on my trip to Madrid last month. Before flying there, I had seen pictures of those blue skies overhead and thought that the pictures had been “doctored” for tourism purposes. I found out to my delight that they are indeed just that blue.

When the Galicians start complaining about the lack or rain then there is a problem, blue skies or not. It’s great not to suffer from S.A.D. and I love the fact that winter seems so short here in Madrid. But at the moment I would be really happy if it rained solidly for a couple of days! Otherwise, we are going to get the mother of all droughts next year.
