iSummary

What the weather is like

Ares has an oceanic climate (Köppen Cfb): rain spread through the year and no real dry season.

The warmest month is August, when afternoons average 24° and nights 16°. January is the coolest month, with highs of 14° and lows of 7°. The difference between the warmest and the coolest month is about 9°, a small seasonal swing typical of places tempered by the sea.

About 1,369 mm of precipitation falls in an average year. January is the wettest month (144 mm, 18 wet days) and July the driest (47 mm, 6 wet days). Cloud cover ranges from 29% in July to 43% in December.

The sea reaches about 18° in August. Sea temperatures lag the air by a month or two, so late summer is usually warmer for swimming than early summer.

Compared with Madrid, the capital, Ares is 9.5° cooler on a August afternoon and receives more precipitation over the year.
