Lisbon sits where the Tagus estuary meets the Atlantic, and that combination produces a consistently breezy climate — the nortada (a steady summer north wind) is a defining local feature, generally strongest in the afternoon. Coastal areas west of the city toward Cascais tend to run windier than the sheltered estuary itself.

ERA5 describes the average over a grid cell about 30 km wide, so local effects are smoothed out: cliffs, valleys, coasts and buildings can be windier or calmer than shown.
