Even
though Spain experiences varied weather all through
the year, the climate of Spain can be safely slotted
to be continental in nature. It is the rugged relief
of Spain that leads to climatic variations all over
the country.
The Cantabrian Mountains are generally considered by
many to be the climatic dividing zone of Spain. The
region that lies to the north of this mountain range
receives plenty of rainfall and the climate is moderate
in nature with mild winters and cool summers. But it
is a dry climate that pervades the region south of the
mountain region. The summers can get burning hot and
the only relief is the infrequent but fierce thunderstorms.
The coastal areas of Spain enjoy a typical Mediterranean
climate but some areas do have a tendency to be bit
humid at times. Snowfalls in the mountains start as
early as October and some snow cover lasts all year
on the highest peaks.
