In June, Madrid typically shows first real heatwave with afternoon thunderstorms. The average high temperature is around 29°C and the average low around 15°C, with monthly rainfall of 22 mm spread over roughly 4 rain days and about 318 hours of sunshine. Average relative humidity stands at 46% and wind speed averages 11 km/h.
The local calendar in June is shaped by festivity of San Antonio (13th) and Mad Cool, so checking the forecast a few days in advance is worth it before any outdoor activity. Averages give a general picture but extreme events can vary widely: in June, Madrid has recorded both unusually warm spells and cold incursions across recent decades.
For a typical stay we recommend hydration and a cap. UV protection is sensible on sunny days, even in a mild winter month, and a closed-toe waterproof shoe helps on damp days. For multi-day trips bring thin layers that you can combine through the day.
The first two weeks of June usually offer the best balance in Madrid: moderate crowds, friendlier prices and weather that remains representative of the month. Late June starts showing features of the transition to the next month. Use our custom historical lookup to check the actual values for the exact year you plan to travel.
