Moving to Spain from Bucharest?

The climate you'd be trading for

Swap Bucharest for a typical Spanish city and, on the national picture, you're looking at about 9°C milder winters. But "Spain" isn't one climate — it runs from the wet Atlantic northwest to the dry Mediterranean southeast, so the honest answer depends on where:

• Vigo Galicia · Atlantic

  vs Bucharest: about 9°C milder winters, roughly 3× the rain and about 5°C cooler summers. mild, green and wet — Spain’s Atlantic northwest.

• Alacant Costa Blanca · Mediterranean

  vs Bucharest: about 11°C milder winters and about half the rain. dry, warm and sunny — the Mediterranean southeast.

• Málaga Costa del Sol · Mediterranean

  vs Bucharest: about 12°C milder winters and 1 more hour of December daylight. warm winters on the southern coast.

Climate deltas compare 1991–2020 normals for Bucharest (Meteostat) against the same 30-year measure for each Spanish anchor. Rounded to whole degrees and bucketed rain ratios on purpose — coarse enough that measurement noise can't flip the direction.
