This week, traffic across Spain is expected to follow normal weekday patterns, but increasingly unsettled weather, with showers becoming more widespread from Wednesday, could lead to localised delays and slower journeys.
The weekend may see increased traffic to leisure areas on Saturday, but the continued chance of showers means drivers should be prepared for potential disruptions on both Saturday and Sunday.
The week ahead in Spain will see a transition to more unsettled driving conditions. While Monday and Tuesday look mainly sunny and warm, by Wednesday, the risk of showers increases, becoming more widespread by Thursday and Friday. The weekend is also expected to be showery and unsettled. Looking further ahead, there are indications of a return to drier and sunnier weather next week. Always stay updated with local forecasts before travelling.
