How rainy is Barcelona in October? We may be able to (finally) get decent flight prices spanning the second and third week of the month but I'd rather not face a Seattle winter. The various weather websites I've seen basically say about 3+ inches (75mm-90mm) for the month, but fewer than 10 days of rain -- which indicates it rains hard, or it doesn't rain.

Experience with this? We can travel in any type of temperature warmer than a Russian winter, but I'd rather not be rained out from sightseeing.

Thanks in advance.

as usual, the weather is a big ??????
We were in Barcelona around second week of Oct.(twice) and it rained one time in 5 days.
This May, I thought the weather would be too hot - it was o.k. until it started to rain our last day ( May 4th, the temp. dropped below 60F) . Apparently it rained for several days non-stop afterward.

You are really asking for a long range forecast.

The weathermen don't even get it all right with the data several days in advance.

I bet someone will post a weather history site, with a whole rake of statistics...but statistics will not give you a weather forecast.
Why would rain spoil a vacation?

Go. Enjoy. The weather is only the weather. There are tons of restaurants, museums, spas.

I have been in Barcelona twice in October - three days in October 2004 and three days in October 2006. I got no rain but the humidity is epic.
