Forecasts for rain around Christmas and into January

The change is due to an anticyclone forming over Greenland, which will push the low fronts further south and into Spain. The Aemet government weather office in Malaga said, "There could be abundant rain, needed to balance out the dry period we have just been through."

This upcoming period of rain is set to last for an extended period of time. It will go past Christmas, New Year and the beginning of January. It's still not possible to see the days of heaviest rainfall, such as Christmas Day or New Year's Day, but the Aemet government weather office said, "There could be a case of enough rainfall that's necessary to re-balance the drought period we've just gone through."
