Segovia 996 m

Under the Sierra de Guadarrama at nearly 1000 m, which takes the edge off the summer heat.

Forecast

31 runs of the American model (GFS), started from slightly different data, looking two weeks ahead. Anywhere the runs agree you can plan on it; where they spread, you can't. Week 2 is shaded: read it for the direction — turning hotter, breaking down into storms — not for Tuesday's number.

Modelled on the 00z run (Thu 15 Oct, 00:00 UTC). The next run should reach this page around 14:45 Madrid time.

Temperature by day °C

Each bar runs from the night's low to the day's high, averaged across the ensemble. The short lines across each bar are the 1991–2020 normal high and low for that date, so a bar reaching past them is a warmer day than usual. Week 2 is shaded: by then the runs disagree enough that only the direction matters.

Thunderstorm fuel, afternoons J/kg

Nothing thundery in this window: the atmosphere never gets close to storm energy.

CAPE is how much energy a rising parcel of air has to play with between midday and nine. Above about 1000 J/kg storms are likely if anything sets them off; the percentage is how many of the 31 runs get there.

Strongest gust, by day km/h

The bar is the day's strongest gust, averaged across the runs; the percentage is how many of the 31 runs gust past 50 km/h, which is where a ridge stops being pleasant.

Temperatures are at 2 m, in the shade — a sunny square or an exposed path will feel several degrees hotter than the chart says. Model grid elevation here is 1004 m, against 996 m for the place itself — every 100 m of difference is worth roughly 0.6 °C.
