Weather in Vilnius

Vilnius has a humid continental climate marked by warm summers and cold winters.

Spring (March to May) sees the temperatures gradually increase from 1°C (34°F) in March to 13°C (55°F) in May.

Summer (June to August) is the peak season with many tourists come to town. Cafes and restaurants all spill out on to the cobbled streets of the Old Town and a flurry of festivals breeze through Vilnius. The city's zinging nightlife is also in full swing. In July, the average high is 21C (70F) while the average low is 12C (54F), though temperatures over 30C (86F) have been recorded.

Autumn (September to November) is pleasant; savvy visitors like to visit in early autumn when the tourist crowds dissipate. In September, the average high is 16C (61F) while the average low is 8C (46F).

Winter (December to February) can be long and hard, expect snow and low temperatures so wrap up warm, but it is also the ideal time for cosying up in traditional pubs and discovering the romantically deserted streets.
