Best known for its monumental palace and surrounding Tapada hunting grounds, Mafra sits on the Lisbon district coast where Atlantic weather systems arrive with little obstruction. The wooded Tapada creates some local variation in rainfall from the more built-up town centre. IPMA’s Lisbon-region radar covers this stretch of coastline north of the capital.
