Climate Chart: Linz (Austria)

Climate overview

Temperature

Temperature averages are coolest in January, when the monthly mean is 1.1 °C, and reach their highest monthly mean in July at 21.0 °C. These figures describe monthly mean conditions, not daytime highs or the temperature on a given visit; day-to-day weather can differ from the average. Across the calendar-month means, the unweighted mean is 11.0 °C. It is a broad summary of the supplied monthly averages rather than a day-weighted annual average, and should not be read as a typical temperature for every month.

Rain

Mean daily rainfall reaches its highest monthly average in May at 3.45 mm/day. Visitors prioritising lower average rainfall can consider January, where the corresponding mean is 1.28 mm/day; this is a comparison of average daily amounts, not a guarantee of dry weather or a measure of how often rain occurs. The unweighted mean across monthly rainfall averages is 2.13 mm/day. These values are daily means, not monthly totals, so they give context for typical amounts without specifying the rainfall on particular days.

Sunshine

Mean daily sunshine is highest in July at 11.82 hours/day and lowest in January at 3.84 hours/day. These averages can help with planning outdoor sightseeing, but sunshine duration is not the same as day length and does not guarantee sunshine on an individual day. The unweighted mean of the monthly daily-sunshine averages is 7.86 hours/day. Treat it as a broad summary across the calendar months, rather than an expectation for every day.

Snow

Mean daily snowfall is highest in January, at 7.39 mm/day. The unweighted mean across the monthly snowfall averages is 1.52 mm/day. These are average daily amounts, not monthly totals; they do not establish how many days have snow, snow depth or snow cover, and cannot by themselves indicate skiing conditions.

Best Travel Time Guide for Linz, Austria: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights

For visitors who prioritise cooler monthly-average conditions, January is the relevant option, with a mean temperature of 1.1 °C. If lower average rainfall is the main criterion, consider January, where mean daily rainfall is 1.28 mm/day; that average does not rule out wet days, so flexible plans and rain protection remain sensible. Rain preparation is particularly relevant to May, when mean daily rainfall reaches 3.45 mm/day. For outdoor planning, mean daily sunshine peaks in July at 11.82 hours/day, while its lowest average is in January at 3.84 hours/day; sunshine duration is not day length and neither figure predicts the weather on a specific date. The mean daily snowfall reaches its highest monthly average in January at 7.39 mm/day. This can inform general winter packing, but an average snowfall amount does not indicate snow frequency, depth or ground cover, so it is not a guide to conditions for snow-dependent activities.
