Title: Weather in Barcelona in december
Post by: RoedGroed on November 07, 2011, 08:58:44 AM
I have been invited down to Barcelona to my homies place in the beginning of december. How is the weather around this time of year for skating. Im from Denmark so im not used to super hot climate anyway. My concern is, is it possible to skate outside? Is it too cold or is it just enough with a hoodie on or a long sleeve t-shirt or so?

Something like that. I've been there in late November and it was a bit chilly but alright. My friend who stayed for another 2 weeks after me said it got real cold and windy on some days but some were ok. It can rain quite a bit, too.

December is not the best month to go out there but if you have a place to stay, don't pass on it. You're from Denmark, it's not too harsh for you:-)

Thanks - I know december is not the best month to go, but since my homie has an apartment and I can stay for free, I might as well go down there instead of just being here in rain and snow. As long as it will still be possible to skate.

I know, but not from a skater perspective. And I thought, since a lot of people go to Barcelona, somebody might been there in December and could tell how it is to skate through that month.

last year i went in the beginning of december and the weather was super good, you could skate in just a t-shirt at around 20 celsius. It gets a little chilly in the evenings though. Then i went again 3 weeks later and we had nothing but rain..

You should probably expect 50-60 degrees Fahrenheit, but Mediterranean weather is pretty unpredictable so you should be ready for whatever. You'll be able to skate in BCN a good amount during the winter months though, as long as it doesn't rain a shit load.
