ClimavisoSpain in February: where the bad weather is, and where it isn't
Averages for 2019–2025, from official warnings. Updated 26 October 2026.
February is one of the quietest months of the year. What there is comes mostly from wind, some cold and mountain snow, and the dehesas of Extremadura go weeks with barely a warning.

How to read these numbers
A zone-day is one warning zone with a warning on one day: Spain has 182 zones, so ten zones warned on the same day make ten. Each zone has its own thresholds, so a warning doesn't mean the same everywhere. And a warning is a forecast, not damage or a measurement: we count when and where warnings were issued, not how much rain fell or how hot it got.
