Climate Chart of Genoa, Italy

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

For Genoa, Italy, the climate data cover 2013–2023. The monthly mean temperatures show a clear contrast between the coolest part of the year and the warmest months, while rainfall and sunshine also vary across the calendar.

Recorded snowfall is another part of the picture, though its daily mean does not indicate how often snow falls or how much accumulates.

Climate overview

Temperature

Monthly mean temperatures are lowest in January, at 8.4 °C. The warmest monthly means are shared by July / August, reaching 24.6 °C. These figures describe averages across each month, not daytime maximum temperatures, so they do not capture the full range visitors might experience within a day. Across the calendar months, the unweighted mean of the monthly mean temperatures is 16.0 °C. It is a useful broad reference, but it is not a day-weighted annual average and should not be treated as the expected temperature for any particular month.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall is highest in November, at 6.85 mm/day, making it a sensible month in which to plan for rain as part of outdoor arrangements. The lowest monthly mean occurs in July, at 1.66 mm/day; that can help identify a lower-average-rainfall option, but does not guarantee dry days or indicate how frequently rain occurs. The unweighted mean of the monthly mean daily rainfall figures is 3.70 mm/day. These are daily averages, not monthly rainfall totals, and conditions on individual days may differ from the monthly mean.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine reaches its highest level in July, at 12.86 hours/day, while the lowest monthly mean is in December, at 4.91 hours/day. These figures can help with planning daylight outdoor time, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length and does not promise clear skies on a given day. The unweighted mean of the monthly mean daily sunshine figures is 8.80 hours/day. Use it as a broad reference across the calendar rather than a prediction for specific dates.

Snow

The highest monthly mean daily snowfall is recorded in February, at 3.06 mm/day. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 0.65 mm/day. These snowfall averages do not establish the number of snowy days, snow depth, snow cover or skiing conditions.

For visitors prioritising lower average rainfall, July is the relevant option: mean daily rainfall is 1.66 mm/day. This is a comparison of monthly averages, not a guarantee of dry weather, so retain flexible outdoor plans and be prepared for rain. By contrast, mean daily rainfall is highest in November, at 6.85 mm/day, making rain preparation especially pertinent when travelling then. Those who prefer cooler monthly averages can use January as a reference, when the monthly mean temperature is 8.4 °C. It does not describe daytime highs or the temperatures on particular travel dates, so check the forecast closer to departure when choosing clothing.

For daylight outdoor planning, mean daily sunshine is highest in July, at 12.86 hours/day, and lowest in December, at 4.91 hours/day. These averages can guide expectations about sunshine duration, but they are not measures of day length or guarantees of clear conditions; they also point to a different criterion from choosing a month for cooler temperatures or lower average rainfall. The highest monthly mean daily snowfall is in February, at 3.06 mm/day. This records a daily average amount, not the frequency of snowy days or the presence of settled snow, so it cannot by itself establish snow cover or suitability for skiing.
