Two Americans Among Three People Gored In Event’s Opening Days
But after Saturday, things clear up for the rest of the event with no rain predicted thru the festival, which runs until July 14.
Thunderstorms are predicted for Saturday but afterward, it’s party cloudy conditions. The chance of rain drops to 10% for the remaining days and nights. The best weather day is to be on Thursday, July 14, with full sunny skies and a high of 30 celsius or 85 degrees.
Overall, the temperatures for the Running of the Bulls are in the 30 celsius range in the daytime while dropping to a cool 13 celsius (55 degrees) at night.
In the event’s first days, two Americans and one Spaniard were gored by bulls on Friday. All are reported to be in good condition.
Other people were injured when two bulls because separated from the pack on their way into the bullring. The Red Cross treated those people for bruises and abrasions.
The event involves the bulls running through the city’s streets into a bullring while thousands of people attempt to run with them. The best way to avoid being gored is to stay ahead of them and get to the bullring before the bulls arrive to it.
Another protective measure is to watch the proceedings from the safety of a balcony or behind a barricade.
After the bulls run into the stadium, there are bullfights, not something that pleases everyone. This year, animal activities groups staged a protest.
But the real popularity of the event is based around the party, which goes on all day, all night and deep into the morning throughout Pamplona.
