Climate overview

Temperature

The monthly mean temperature is lowest in January, at 1.4 °C, and reaches its highest monthly mean in July, at 20.2 °C. These are averages for each month, not typical daytime highs, and do not show how much temperatures can vary from day to day. Across the calendar months, the unweighted mean of the monthly means is 10.4 °C; it is a broad summary rather than a day-weighted annual average.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is lowest in both January / April at 1.50 mm/day, while the highest monthly mean occurs in August at 2.80 mm/day. These figures describe average daily amounts, not monthly accumulations, and they do not indicate how often rain falls or whether a particular day will be wet. The unweighted mean across the monthly means is 1.99 mm/day.

Snow

The highest monthly mean daily snowfall is recorded in January, at 5.86 mm/day; the unweighted mean across monthly means is 1.30 mm/day. These average amounts do not establish how many days have snowfall, how deep snow becomes, whether snow cover persists, or whether conditions support skiing.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine reaches its highest monthly level in July, at 11.84 hours/day, and its lowest in December, at 2.70 hours/day. This measure is the average duration of sunshine per day, not the length of daylight; it offers a useful guide to relative sunshine availability, but not a promise of clear skies on a given date. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 7.55 hours/day.

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

For visitors prioritising lower average rainfall, January / April is a conditional option: mean daily rainfall is 1.50 mm/day in both months. This does not guarantee dry days or quantify rain frequency, so keep weather-flexible plans and suitable rain protection in mind. If preparing for the month with the highest average daily rainfall, note that August records 2.80 mm/day. Those seeking cooler monthly-average conditions can look to January, when the monthly mean temperature is 1.4 °C; this is not a daytime maximum and cannot describe the conditions on each travel day. For outdoor sightseeing planned around sunshine, July has the highest mean daily sunshine at 11.84 hours/day, while December has the lowest at 2.70 hours/day. Sunshine duration is not day length, and these averages do not guarantee sunshine during a visit.

Snowfall records show a highest monthly mean daily amount of 5.86 mm/day in January. This average alone cannot tell you how many snowy days to expect, whether snow will cover the ground, or what conditions will be like for outdoor activities; check current forecasts when planning.
