The climate of Valladolid (Spain)
Valladolid is a large city located in the northwestern part of Spain
in the autonomous region of Castile and Leon. The city is located on
the banks of the Pisuerga River. The city is situated in the
wine-growing area Ribera del Duero which is among the largest
wine-growing areas in Spain and Europe. Vallodolid is an old city
which was already inhabited a few centuries BC. The city was inhabited
by the Kelts, Romans and Moors before it became part of the Kingdom of
Castile and Leon. Many remains from its long history can still be
found in the city. The Royal palace of Valladolid, Palacio de
Pimentel, Plaza Mayor, the Monasterio de las Huelgas Reales and the
Cathedral of Valladolid are among them. Valladolid has a Mediterranean
climate with characteristics of both a continental and a maritime
climate. Because of its location in the northwestern part of the
Iberian peninsula the Mediterranean Sea has a smaller influence on the
climate here than in the more easterly located cities in Spain.
Because of this differences in temperatures may occur. During the
summer average temperatures are just below 30 degrees Celsius (86.0
degrees Fahrenheit). During the winter subzero temperatures during the
night are not uncommon.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
