Ron Butler Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Hi there MMM forum, this is my first time on this service, so I hope I have got it right. I am wondering if anyone out there can give me any advice on current weather conditions in Spain. I am sailing from Dover at the end of December and heading for the Costa Blanca. Usually I go via San Sebastian, Pamplona, Zaragoza and Valencia, but never in the middle of winter. As we see signs for ski resorts on this route I am wondering if snow is likely to be a problem, and what are the spanish like for keeping their roads clear in bad conditions?

colinfrier Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Costa del Sol 20+ for the last 3 days and still set fair.The Spanish are very good at keeping all the main routes clear but if snow is about stick to main routes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Monday 22nd December: Costa Blanca coast..... Clear blue skies this morning (as for the past week or so now), and bright sunshine. Almost no wind; a lovely calm, sunny and clear day. Ambient temperature about 16 degrees at 10.45am, projected to rise to about 19 degrees this afternoon. (Much hotter in direct sun though) Shorts and T-shirt are the dress-order of the day. Again. Planning Crimbly dinnery thingy with the Sparkle to be gobbled outside on our terrace, assuming weather doesn't change in the next couple of days.

Bill Ord Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Hi, Useful site: www.ukweather.com go to Spain then any of the cities listed, it gives accurate up to date temperatures and forecasts updated every 30 minutes. Included are weather maps which among other things show the cloud cover. For instance Valencia this morning at 11am local time 8c, forecast high of 16c.

BGD Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 Costa Blanca (a bit North of Benidorm), today, Monday 30th Dec: Clear blue skies, almost no wind at all. Very nicely warm in the direct sun (T-shirt jobbie), but chilly (sweatshirt jobbie) out of it. Went out for ride on motorbike with the Sparkle, up the N332 coast road and then inland to Jalon for lunch. Needed the liner in my jacket, and my leather bike trousers. Could have sat outside to eat in T-shirts, so long as in direct sunshine. This evening (it's nearly 8pm here as I type) it's till clear skies, but temp has dropped to probably about 10 degrees. Spanish TV forecast is for more of the same, settled weather, for the next 3 or 4 days. A tad too chilly for the sandals and shorts at the moment.
