The environmental report of 2025 describes colder and rainy winters, with higher rainfall in December and January, and warmer and drier summers. July and August stand out by the heat. It is a characterization of the weather, not a forecast for the next visit. To know a place, compare it in different months: water, leaves and flowers can offer new clues.
The IPMA explains that climate normals use periods of 30 years. They gather monthly and annual values of elements such as temperature and precipitation. An isolated month and a series of decades therefore answer different questions.
When comparing graphs, look for the location and the reference period: averages calculated for different intervals do not have to match. The long series allow you to study variations and trends. The observations you make on a tour help you get to know that day and that place; they do not replace a climate series and alone describe all the altitudes of the municipality.
