Climate Chart of Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Federation

Climate overview

Temperature

Monthly mean temperatures reach their low at -9.0 °C in January and their high at 19.4 °C in July. These are averages for each month, not daytime highs or lows, so they describe the broad annual temperature range rather than the conditions a visitor should expect on a particular day. Across the calendar months, the unweighted mean of monthly mean temperatures is 5.4 °C. It provides a compact overview of the year, but is not a day-weighted annual average and does not describe the temperature in any single month.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is highest at 2.52 mm/day in July and lowest at 0.10 mm/day in January. The figures are daily averages for those months, not monthly accumulation totals; the lower average does not guarantee rain-free days or reveal how often rain falls. The unweighted mean across monthly mean daily rainfall values is 1.19 mm/day. Use it as a broad summary rather than a forecast for a specific date or a measure of rain frequency.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine duration peaks at 13.15 hours/day in June, while its lowest monthly mean is 0.78 hours/day in December. These averages can help indicate when daylight outdoor plans may have more or less sunshine, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length. The unweighted mean of monthly mean daily sunshine duration is 6.93 hours/day, a year-wide summary that cannot predict the sunshine on an individual day.

Snow

Mean daily snowfall reaches its highest monthly average of 10.41 mm/day in December. This is an amount averaged per day, not a monthly total, and it does not establish how many days have snowfall, how deep snow becomes, or whether snow cover or skiing conditions are present. The unweighted mean across monthly mean daily snowfall values is 3.72 mm/day. It summarizes the supplied monthly averages, but should not be read as a measure of snow depth or the likelihood of snow on a particular visit.
