Climate overview
Temperature
Monthly mean temperatures are lowest in January, at 5.7 °C, and highest in August, at 27.4 °C. These are averages for the month, not daytime highs, so they cannot show how warm or cool an individual afternoon or night may feel. Across the calendar months, the unweighted mean of the monthly temperature means is 15.9 °C. It summarizes the set of monthly averages, rather than serving as a day-weighted annual average.
Rain
Mean daily rainfall reaches its highest monthly average in November, at 1.10 mm/day. This is a daily mean, not a monthly rainfall total, and it does not indicate how often rain falls or rule out wetter individual days. The lowest mean daily rainfall is shared by June / August, at 0.20 mm/day. The unweighted mean across monthly daily-rainfall averages is 0.66 mm/day; neither figure specifies the timing or frequency of rainy days.
Snow
Mean daily snowfall has its highest monthly average in February, at 0.82 mm/day. This small daily mean does not establish how many days have snowfall, how deep snow becomes, whether snow cover persists, or whether conditions suit skiing. The unweighted mean across the monthly daily-snowfall averages is 0.15 mm/day. It describes averaged amounts, not snowfall frequency or snow depth.
Sunshine
Mean daily sunshine is highest in June, at 12.73 hours/day, and lowest in December, at 5.12 hours/day. These averages can help with broad outdoor-planning expectations, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length and does not guarantee clear conditions on a particular day. The unweighted mean of the monthly sunshine-duration averages is 8.92 hours/day per day. It summarizes the monthly means and should not be read as a day-weighted annual figure.
