=== Climate === The city of Santander has an [[oceanic climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification]] ''Cfb''), the annual thermal oscillation of the average monthly temperatures reaching around 10 °C (50 °F).{{citation needed|date=February 2019}} Due to the relatively mild winters (with average temperatures staying near 10 °C (50 °F)), it is technically classified as maritime subtropical (Cfbl/Cfbk) by the Trewartha climate classification. The maximum temperature reached in Santander Airport was {{convert|37.8|°C|0|abbr=on}} on 27 June 2009, and the minimum temperature {{convert|-5.4|°C|0|abbr=on}} on 21 January 1957. The highest maximum daytime average for a month was in August 2003, with {{convert|27.1|C|F}}.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aemet.es/es/serviciosclimaticos/datosclimatologicos/efemerides_extremos*?w=0&k=can&l=1109&datos=det&x=1109&m=13&v=todos|title=Extreme values for Santander|publisher=Aemet.es|access-date=22 July 2015}}</ref> Warm months (mean above {{convert|22|C|F}}) are however rare. The highest temperature recorded in downtown is {{convert|40.2|C|F}} in August 1940.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://meteo-climat-bzh.dyndns.org/index.php?page=stati&id=563|title=Météo climat stats Station Santander|language=fr|accessdate=3 June 2022}}</ref> Sunshine hours are very low by comparison with the rest of mainland and southern Spain. Even compared with other areas of northern Spain, such as [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], which have many more hours of sunshine in coastal cities such as [[Vigo]] or [[Pontevedra]]. With annual averages of approximately 1650 hours of sunshine, Santander's southern areas are about as sunny as [[London]] and [[Paris]], and quite a bit less sunny than most of England's south coastal regions. The area closer to the coast has higher sunshine time but lower summer afternoon temperatures. {{Weather box |location = Santander, downtown, 64 m (1991–2020), extremes since 1877 |metric first = yes
