Climate overview

Temperature

Monthly mean temperature is lowest in January at -3.6 °C and highest in July at 14.2 °C. These are averages for each month, not daytime maximum temperatures, so they describe the overall monthly temperature pattern rather than the warmest conditions a visitor might encounter on an individual day. The unweighted mean of the monthly mean temperatures is 4.6 °C. It summarizes the calendar-month means without weighting them by the number of days in each month, and should not be read as a day-weighted annual average.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is lowest in March at 2.03 mm/day, making it a conditional option for visitors who prioritize lower average rainfall. The highest monthly mean is in September at 5.51 mm/day, a useful prompt to prepare for rain when planning outdoor time then. These daily averages do not show how often rain falls or guarantee dry or wet days. The unweighted mean of the monthly mean daily rainfall amounts is 3.25 mm/day. It is not a monthly total, and it does not describe the rainfall on any particular day.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine duration is highest in June at 11.67 hours/day, which can help visitors prioritizing average sunshine plan outdoor sightseeing. The lowest monthly mean is in December at 0.02 hours/day. Sunshine duration is not the same as day length, so these figures alone do not establish how much daylight is available. Across the calendar months, the unweighted mean of mean daily sunshine duration is 6.03 hours/day. This summary does not indicate the sunshine expected on a specific date.

Snow

Mean daily snowfall is highest in March at 19.22 mm/day. This is a daily mean, not a monthly total; it does not establish the number of snowy days, snow depth or snow cover, and cannot by itself indicate skiing conditions. The unweighted mean of the monthly mean daily snowfall amounts is 8.26 mm/day. It provides a broad summary of those monthly averages, not a measure of snowfall on a particular day.

For visitors prioritizing cooler monthly averages, January is the relevant reference point, with a monthly mean temperature of -3.6 °C; this does not predict temperatures on individual days. If lower average rainfall is the priority, March is the conditional option, with mean daily rainfall of 2.03 mm/day. That average does not guarantee dry days or show how frequently rain occurs, so keep plans flexible and bring rain protection as appropriate. For rain preparation, note that mean daily rainfall is highest in September at 5.51 mm/day; the figure is not a monthly total and does not mean every day will be wet.

Visitors prioritizing average sunshine for outdoor planning can use June as a reference, with mean daily sunshine duration of 11.67 hours/day. This measures sunshine duration rather than day length, and does not promise the conditions on a particular day. The recorded mean daily snowfall is highest in March at 19.22 mm/day. This average does not reveal snowy-day frequency, snow depth or snow cover, so it is not enough to assess skiing conditions.
