If you are planning a trip in Northern Spain it makes sense you get to know the weather in this vast area of Spain. The weather in Northern Spain differs from the overall idea of sunny Spain, but it is not a stable reality either.  

Spain´s climate can vary significantly from one corner to the next. This is due to the country´s size and its varying terrain and altitudes. You may not know that Spain is actually the second most mountainous country in Europe following Switzerland. Spain generally has dry summers and winters with balanced temperatures, typical of a Mediterranean climate. However, the country´s large geographic diversity causes the climate to change significantly especially between the north and south.

Many tourists flock to Spain because it is thought of as a country with good weather and plenty of sun all year round. This is not always the case and the weather can often be unpredictable, especially in the north. Before planning your trip to Spain, it is a good idea to do a bit of research based on the region you plan to visit and the time of year.
