Badajoz sits in southwestern Spain, where a Mediterranean-influenced climate with strong Atlantic character brings a distinct wet season from autumn through spring and very dry, hot summers.
Near the Portuguese border on the Guadiana River, the city monitors the river’s level during Extremadura’s wetter months. Because the wet season here is spread over several months rather than concentrated into single extreme events like Spain’s eastern coast, flooding tends to build gradually as rivers rise over days, and AEMET’s radar network helps track these longer wet spells.
