Climate Chart of Munich, Germany

Monthly data: Temperature °C, Rain (mm), Sunshine (h) · 2013–2023

Climate overview

Temperature

The coolest monthly mean is 0.5 °C in January, while the warmest is 19.4 °C in July. These are averages for each month, not typical daytime maximum temperatures, so they describe the broad temperature profile rather than the full range visitors may encounter from day to day. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 9.7 °C; it summarizes the calendar-month figures without weighting them by the number of days in each month.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is highest in May at 4.10 mm/day, and lowest in March at 1.43 mm/day. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 2.50 mm/day. These are daily average amounts, not monthly totals, and a lower monthly mean does not guarantee rain-free days or indicate how frequently rain falls. The figures are useful for comparing the calendar’s average rainfall levels, but they cannot predict conditions for a particular visit.

Snow

The highest monthly mean daily snowfall is 8.18 mm/day in January. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 1.96 mm/day. These are average daily snowfall amounts, not monthly totals; they do not establish how many days have snow, its depth, whether snow cover persists, or whether conditions suit skiing.

Sunshine

Average daily sunshine reaches its highest monthly mean in July at 11.50 hours/day, and its lowest in December at 3.97 hours/day. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 7.80 hours/day. These hours describe average sunshine duration, not daylight length, and do not guarantee how sunny any individual day will be; they can nevertheless help visitors compare the broad scope for outdoor plans across the year.

Best Travel Time Guide for Munich, Germany: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights

For visitors prioritising lower average rainfall, March is the relevant option in these data, with mean daily rainfall of 1.43 mm/day; this does not promise dry weather, so flexible plans and rain protection remain sensible. Rain preparation is especially relevant around May, when mean daily rainfall reaches 4.10 mm/day. Neither figure gives the likelihood of rain on a specific day. Those prioritising cooler monthly averages can look to January, whose monthly mean temperature is 0.5 °C; this is not a daytime maximum or a guarantee of the temperature during a visit. For outdoor sightseeing with more average daily sunshine, July records 11.50 hours/day, while December records 3.97 hours/day. Sunshine duration is not day length, and these averages cannot settle a single best time to visit across different preferences.

Snowfall averages may also inform expectations: January has the highest monthly mean daily snowfall at 8.18 mm/day. This does not tell visitors how many snowy days to expect, whether snow will remain on the ground, or whether skiing conditions will be available; treat it as an average snowfall measure rather than a guarantee of snow cover.
