East of Porto, Gondomar rises into hillier terrain that catches slightly more rain than the coast during the long northern Portugal wet season. Steep streets and stream valleys around the town can run high quickly after sustained frontal rain, a pattern typical of the wider Porto district. IPMA’s regional radar station tracks these Atlantic weather systems as they move inland from the coast.
