I walked from Lisbon to Santiago last year in May. After Porto, it was hot, cold, raining, cloudy, so be prepared for everything
 
I know the weather is unpredictable..., but, thanks anyway for the guidance. I now have a better idea of what to expect. Happy weekend to all!

It could be hot, or cold, or cloudy, or sunny, or rainy. Take your pick. However, it could be all of those, or only one. You can be certain, it is unlikely to snow.

P.S. how long is your piece of string.

Hola, I am arriving Porto next week the 16 and have been asking the same question about the weather to know what to pack. It looks like it is going to be a little of everything.
 
I’m coming the week after and trying to decide if a sheet sleeping bag will be fine at night and whether my north face uk rain jacket will be hot. So many small decisions....
