What is the weather in Madrid around Christmas. Do I need to bring heavy winter coats. Does it rain a lot in Madrid in December. Thanks for your assistance.

Hi Jim
It won't be warm that's for sure. Average highs are 51 and ave. low about 38. It may rain a bit too. Being from NY it shouldn't feel very cold. Dress warm for the evenings. Gloves and a long coat should do it. Don't forget a nice scarf and comfortable shoes and you'll be fine. The city is very alive and beautifull that time of the season.

It can be cooooooolllllllddddd! Far colder than a lot of European cities that I have visited in winter. For me, scarf, gloves and woolly hat are essential (as well as a good coat).

Madrid would likely be just a little bit less-cold than New York City around Christmastime. It won't snow, that's for sure, but it will be cold. I don't know if gloves & scarves would be necessary - at least not for me because I'm a hot body - but maybe for some frioleros (cold-blooded-people). But a warm, winter coat is essential. Stepping out of that warm, late-night bar or flamenco show would be a nice, cold, slap in the face too. New Years Eve can be downright freezing cold so prepare for that if you're in Madrid. Saludos, MadridMan

Saludos, MadridMan " It won't snow, that's for sure ..."Is that what you told the people in Burgos last Winter?? For Christmas in Madrid, I would recommend a raincoat with liner: what the Brits call a 'Mack.' Scarf is optional, but I would have a pair of Thinsulate gloves in my raincoat pockets. And: believe it or not, New York City (Maritime influence) is usually not as cold as Columbus, Ohio during December/January

Unless there are some VERY strange weather patterns in Madrid over Christmas, it definitely won't snow. People in Burgos, well, that's a totally different matter.

Nowadays I am always expecting worse weather, since countries around the world are experiencing more extreme and unusual weather (the effects of global warming?)! I don't think it would surprise me if it did snow in madrid this winter...
