[QUOTE="BiggBlue, post: 1083461, member: 74125"] I set off from Irun on the 1st of October this year. And arrived in Santiago 34 days later. During that time there were five days when it was wet and chilly, this was more frequent towards the end of the trip as I entered Galicia. In general, the Spanish forecast was fairly accurate in predicting weather conditions in the short term, but not in the long term. I am originally from Scotland and grew up in a very wet environment where it could rain for days on end in the middle of the summer. There were two schools of thought regards walking in the rain, one was whatever happens you're going to get wet so make sure you stay warm by wearing Marino wool and nonsynthetic layers next to your skin. The other school of thought was you need to buy the best waterproof kit available. This year in addition to my poncho I took a $300 Gore-Tex waterproof jacket. I still got wet. If not from the rain then from the sweat/perspiration which is unable to circulate out due to the layers I was wearing. As this was my fourth Camino, and having tried various combinations of kit to stay dry, I am now firmly of the opinion that a good strong golf umbrella I believe would probably for me be the best solution. I will let you know next year. Regards waiting for the best time of year to go for weather. I think it's a little bit of a lottery, Pick your date and stick to it, whilst on the Norte I walked for a few days with a very nice fellow from Italy, who was walking it for the second time. He told me he had walked at five years previously where it rained for 21 out of 33 days he was on the Camino. [/QUOTE]
