*Note on rain forecasts: as there's still time, these can change significantly. Please refer to the average temperatures as a primary guide.
Madrid's weather in September is actually quite pleasant for travelers.
In early September, daytime temperatures can reach around 86°F, so summer clothes like short-sleeved shirts or light dresses are perfect for exploring during the day.
However, Madrid experiences significant temperature swings between day and night. Once the sun sets, it cools down surprisingly fast.
Especially if you're traveling after mid-September, definitely pack a short-sleeved top with a light cardigan or shirt.
