Climate Chart of Malaga, Spain

Climate overview

Temperature

The coolest monthly mean temperature occurs in January, at 12.4 °C; the warmest occurs in August, at 26.3 °C. These are averages for each month, not daytime highs, so they do not describe the full range visitors may experience during a day. Across the calendar months, the unweighted mean of the monthly mean temperatures is 18.7 °C. This summary gives a broad annual reference, but it is not weighted by the number of days in each month.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine reaches its highest monthly average in June, at 13.10 hours/day, and its lowest in December, at 7.72 hours/day. These duration averages can help with broad outdoor-planning expectations, but sunshine hours are not the same as daylight length. The unweighted mean of the monthly sunshine-duration averages is 10.36 hours/day per day. As a monthly-mean summary, it does not guarantee the sunshine available on an individual day.

Rain

The highest monthly mean daily rainfall is in March, at 2.28 mm/day. The lowest is in July, at 0.03 mm/day. These are daily averages, not monthly totals, and the lower figure does not guarantee rain-free days or indicate how often rain occurs. The unweighted mean of the monthly daily rainfall averages is 1.12 mm/day. It provides a year-round summary of average daily amounts, rather than a forecast for any particular date.

Snow

The highest monthly mean daily snowfall is recorded in January / February, at 0.01 mm/day. This small average does not establish how many days have snowfall, whether snow accumulates or remains on the ground, or whether conditions suit snow-based activities.
