Clear skies in A Coruña on Saturday morning are expected to give way to increasing cloud cover and light rain in the afternoon. Information from the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología (AEMET), conditions will remain clear until 06:00. Clouds will then gradually move in, bringing intermittent showers through the afternoon and persistent cloudiness into the evening. The morning is expected to stay dry, with drizzle forecast later in the day.
Temperatures will remain steady compared with previous days, with highs reaching 26°C and lows near 18°C. Light southwesterly breezes are expected as the weather changes, keeping conditions mild but unsettled. This breaks from the stable weather earlier in the week and echoes broader patterns elsewhere in Spain, including the recent abrupt cooling in Madrid after a heatwave, detailed in this report on the capital's temperature drop.
On Sunday, AEMET forecasts thick cloud cover and light rain from early morning until midday. Rain is expected to ease around noon, but clouds will persist. Maximum temperatures will dip to around 22°C, while minimums will remain at 18°C. Winds will shift to a gentle northerly direction, reinforcing the cooler trend.
Monday brings a low probability of rain, with very cloudy conditions likely during the first half of the day. Cloud cover should decrease by midday, and temperatures are set to rise again, with highs near 25°C and lows steady at 18°C. Light northeasterly breezes are forecast to return as conditions gradually stabilize.
Nearby municipalities will also see unsettled weather. In Santiago de Compostela, cloudy skies are expected from the early hours through midday, followed by intervals of cloud and light rain into the evening. No rain is anticipated in the morning, but weak precipitation is likely in the afternoon. Temperatures in Santiago will range from a low of 16°C to a high of 24°C. Lugo will see mostly clear skies until noon, followed by variable cloudiness for the rest of Saturday, with temperatures ranging from 14°C to 27°C.
AEMET’s official Spain forecast presents municipal and regional outlooks in maps and text forecasts. Its tables include minimum and maximum temperatures. The separate Meteoalerta system is Spain’s national structure for adverse-weather warnings, with forecasts extending up to 72 hours and updates continuing once hazardous conditions begin. Routine rain and cloud forecasts do not by themselves constitute a warning.
AEMET also publishes recent observations, including hourly measurements and daily extremes, and reports accumulated precipitation. Updates are tied to the stated observation time. Its record for the municipality of A Coruña is distinct from the record for A Coruña Airport in Culleredo: the airport station, identified as 1387E, is listed at 98 metres above sea level, at 43° 18′ 25″ N and 8° 22′ 19″ W. Those station observations provide a way to assess conditions after the forecast period, but the two locations represent separate measurement points.
These forecasts, based on data from AEMET, are provisional and may be updated as new information becomes available. Weather across Galicia and neighboring regions can vary quickly, making local updates especially relevant in summer, when temperatures and precipitation can shift rapidly. Galicia’s coastal climate is known for sudden changes, with Atlantic influences bringing quick transitions between sun and rain. These patterns can affect daily routines and plans for travel or outdoor activities.
