1 = most warnings
Segovia falls in the Sistema Central de Segovia zone, which has more warning days than most zones in Spain. The reasons are mountain ones: storms, wind, rain, heat and, above all, snow, which weighs far more here than on the plateau.
January is the busiest month and July the second, so there are two warning seasons: snow and cold, and heat and storms. Even so, the zone has had no red warning in the last eight years.
Segovia has 52,375 inhabitants and sits in the Sistema Central de Segovia warning zone (Segovia). Warnings are issued for the whole zone: it shares them with 2 other towns, such as El Espinar and Riaza.

How this was made
Everything comes from the archive of official AEMET warnings that Climaviso has kept since June 2018: each day counts once, at the highest level the zone had. A warning is a forecast, not damage or a measurement, and it's issued for the whole zone, not your street. We don't cover measured temperatures or rainfall: only when, and why, a warning was issued.
