What to Bring by Season

The weather forecast for Prague is generally stable for the first 3 or 4 days listed. But these packing tips will also help you plan ahead. The key to packing is flexibility. With the exception of winter, it's possible to have unseasonable weather in any season. For example, you might encounter cool days in July. So, be flexible when you can!

Spring Weather in Prague (March, April and May)

Spring is a great time to visit Prague. However, it's a tough time to pack for because the weather swings from sunny to wintry depending on the month. So pack with flexibility in mind.

If you're coming in March, it's likely to be cold. So bring winter accessories like a hat, scarf and coat. April is usually more mild and May is often the best month of the year - in my humble opinion. May is just warm enough but not too hot for sightseeing.

I wouldn't pack shorts unless you are coming for the traditional summer months. The mornings and evenings will always be much cooler in the spring months. Dress in light layers with a jacket, long sleeves and always bring good walking shoes.

Summer Weather in Prague (June, July and August)

The summer weather forecast Prague is inevitably warmer than spring. But first, June can be a little tricky. Spring sometimes likes to hang on all the way to July. So check the forecast above for details. June can also be a little on the wet side.

July and August are the warmest months with temperatures sometimes reaching 32 C / 90 F. So, summer is the easiest to pack for - bring shorts, light shirts, trousers (pants) and always a light jacket or sweatshirt just in case.

And, don't foreget the sunglasses. Evenings can still get cool sometimes especially if an afternoon shower has come through.

Autumn Weather in Prague (September, October and November)

Autumn in Prague can be quite nice. Many people think it's the best time to visit as the temperatures start to cool.

September is usually warm but the mornings and evenings are always cooler. So, bring a light jacket or something you can take on and off and carry throughout the day.

October is cooler but still a great time to visit. You might find less crowds too. The nights are even cooler and some people might find it cold. You should bring a warmer jacket and a hat to be safe. You might find a little wet weather too - so bring appropriate shoes and socks.

November, unfortunately, could be considered winter for many people. It's not uncommon to have a snow flurry or two during this month. And, the sun is nearly always hiding in gray. So pack warm clothes. Even if it's a mild month, it will be cold at night with less and less daylight.

Winter Weather in Prague (December, January and February)

Winter in Prague is usually cold - there's no getting around it. Of course, it's the cheapest time to visit. Outside of the holidays, there are plenty of deals to be found.

Pack warm items: gloves, hat, scarf, coat, warm socks and shoes. Snow is more common in January and February, but the city center streets are cleared pretty quickly. You will be most comfortable if you cater to your hands and feet. Once these are cold, sightseeing isn't so pleasant.
