Everything changes during the May bank holiday
This situation will change drastically during the long-awaited May bank holiday.
May will start with instability in the form of showers, so typical of spring and this month. The arrival of an Atlantic storm to the western part of the peninsula has triggered the yellow warning in nine communities (including Madrid), for rain, which will bring between 15 and 20 liters in an hour, for storms, adverse coastal phenomena, or strong wind gusts.
The Retiro Park and eight other parks in the city will have restricted areas due to the yellow alert.

On May 2, Community of Madrid Day, the situation will be even more unstable, especially in the first half of the day, with a drop in temperatures and showers and storms taking center stage.
