Brunete’s settled weather is set to break late Thursday, when thick clouds will move in and light rain is expected to follow. The State Meteorological Agency (AEMET) says the morning will stay dry, with drizzle starting later in the day. Its bulletins show the same pattern across much of central Spain.
Daytime highs will remain at 28°C, as earlier this week, while early-morning temperatures will drop to 14°C around 8:00. Light easterly winds will bring a chill as the sun goes down. Independent weather reports give the same figures for Brunete, in line with the forecast for the Comunidad de Madrid.
Friday will bring no respite: AEMET expects thick cloud and rain throughout the day. Temperatures will shift only slightly, with highs near 26°C and lows of 15°C, while light easterly winds continue. AEMET has officially warned that October 1 to 5 will bring persistent instability across central Spain, including locally heavy, sustained rainfall accompanied by thunderstorms and possible hail.
Saturday and Sunday are also expected to be cloudy and wet. Saturday’s highs should exceed 24°C, with lows of 15°C. On Sunday, temperatures will fall slightly, ranging from 22°C to 14°C. Winds will turn from easterly on Saturday to northeasterly on Sunday. AEMET’s special bulletins put the chance of the unsettled spell lasting several days at 70%, with a run of rainy days and some heavy bursts rather than passing showers.
Nearby Las Rozas de Madrid will start with high clouds, followed by thick clouds and light rain around midday. The morning should stay dry, with light rain likely in the afternoon. Temperatures will range from 13°C to 28°C, almost matching Brunete’s pattern.
Madrid will see high clouds early, then thick clouds and light rain after noon. Temperatures in the capital will range from 15°C to 28°C. ABC’s regional overviews for Madrid project accumulated rainfall of more than 40-50 liters per square meter by Sunday in the capital and central areas. This is not an official AEMET forecast, but the estimate points to potential effects on transport and urban infrastructure if the trend continues.
Onda Cero notes that late September marks a shift from hot, steady weather to a cooler, wetter phase across the Comunidad de Madrid and nearby regions.
Other cities, including Segovia, Ávila, Guadalajara, Salamanca, Ciudad Real, Tomelloso, Valencia, Oria, Albacete, Torrevieja, Torremolinos, Getxo, Jaén and Barcelona, are also on alert. Forecasts point to similar instability, though details remain provisional. AEMET will update its forecasts as new data comes in.
Recent severe weather alerts have made headlines across Spain. The latest AEMET data points to unsettled days ahead for Brunete and its neighbors, with cooler nights under cloudy skies and rain in the forecast. Residents may need to adjust their plans and follow updates, as forecasts can change quickly. The rain and lower temperatures mark the end of late-season warmth.
