The Weather in Galicia

The weather in the coastal regions of Galicia is similar to that of the coastal regions of Southern England. It is never too hot or too cold. Average summer temperatures are below 70°F. Average winter temperatures are above 50°F. It is always cool at night, with nighttime temperatures in summer often being lower than daytime temperatures in winter. The rainfall is abundant year round. It can rain at any time of year, although the rain is usually a fine drizzle (in Galician they call it orballo). Heavy storms do occur, particularly in winter, but some winters barely see any rain at all and temperatures stay well into the sixties. The best we can say about North Atlantic weather is that it is unpredictable, as any experienced seaman can confirm.
