ClimavisoFestivals and bad weather
Does it rain at Holy Week? Is San Fermín hot enough for a warning? We don't guess the weather at the next festival, but we do count how often AEMET warned on those dates every year.

This is not a forecast: it counts how often AEMET warned on those dates in recent years. A warning is a forecast that a threshold will be crossed in the zone, not damage or the rain that fell.
