For the Puente del Pilar over the weekend through Monday, 12 October 2026, forecasts point to mostly sunny, milder weather in Spain This was indicated by television meteorologist Roberto Brasero (Antena 3) and the state Agencia Estatal de Meteorología whose latest forecasts were published on 10 October and updated on Saturday. Monday is a nationwide public holiday for Día de la Hispanidad.
Brasero sums up the outlook from Saturday to the public holiday as follows: sunshine will continue across much of the country, while the chill of early October will ease. He expects some exceptions: showers remain possible in the Canary Islands and isolated, light showers may occur in Ceuta and Melilla He also mentions a risk of rain on Saturday morning along the Costa del Sol. This assessment is consistent with the situation updates from the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología.
The Agencia Estatal de Meteorología confirms that skies will be mostly clear across mainland Spain. In the north, cloud bands and occasional drizzle are likely, especially along the northern coast. Conditions in the Canary Islands will remain changeable; showers were already recorded there on Friday and Saturday, and further local showers are possible over the weekend. Overall, meteorologists expect only small amounts of rain outside these peripheral areas. For Ceuta and Melilla, the Aemet does not rule out isolated, light showers, which will clear as the day goes on.
Temperatures and daytime conditions are expected to improve compared with the start of the week. Pleasantly mild daytime temperatures are forecast in many areas, while nights may remain cool at higher elevations. Inland, conditions point to settled high pressure, bringing generally fine weather. Small-scale disturbances at the edges of the Iberian Peninsula may nevertheless bring temporary cloud and light rain.
Aemet is responsible for official weather forecasts and warnings in Spain. It recommends following short-term local forecasts, as coastal areas prone to wind and showers can change rapidly. For Monday itself, Roberto Brasero and the Agencia Estatal de Meteorología expect largely sunny conditions. The forecasts cover 10 to 12 October 2026; outlooks beyond that remain provisional and depend on the persistence of the large-scale high-pressure system.
