      JavierLeon replied to the thread Weather site.
      Some time ago I built a page to show the 5 day forecast in the cities of different caminos. In any case, as a fellow pilgrim indicated, it is best to enjoy the day looking out the window when you wake up. Buen Camino,

      I'm seeing more distance on the weekends than the rest but I think it's because of the growing trend this year.... I was more doubtful that it would do well with Easter but it has also predicted it quite well. regarding elections... give me...

      A good predictor could be albergue vacancy rate in key starting towns (St Jean, Astorga, Sarria). This could be a good indicator of +X days to arrival in SdC. The Wise Pilgrim app has just added a voluntary feature where albs can self-report.
