What is Central Spain's climate?

Answer 1

Warm, dry, and sunny is the most common condition found in Spain. Obviously conditions vary by location but on the whole you can expect these conditions to predominate.

Spain has at least three distinct climatic zones. The North bordering the Bay of Biscay has an Atlantic type of climate much influenced by weather systems associated with the Atlantic circulation. Summers are warm/hot but with outbreaks of rain; winters mild but rainy/snowy in the mountains. Central Spain around Madrid is more remote from Atlantic influences and has a more continental climate with very hot dry summers and very cold winters. southern Spain/Costa Brava etc. has a Mediterranean climate with hot relatively dry summers and most precipitation in winter like parts of California.

Answer 2

Central Spain experienced very hot summers and many people from Madrid will make their way down to the southern Costas to get some cooling sea breezes and relief from the heat. The reverse is true in the winter, very cold with frequent snowfall.

Answer 3

The climate zone in Spain is temperate; clear, hot summers in interior, more moderate and cloudy along coast; cloudy, cold winters in interior, partly cloudy and cool along the coast.
