An inland furniture-manufacturing town in the Porto district, Paredes sits in the Tamega valley where the wet, mild northern Portugal climate supports the surrounding forestry and farmland. Rainfall is spread across a longer wet season than in southern Portugal, with only a brief dry spell in summer. IPMA’s regional radar tracks frontal systems as they move through this inland valley.
