Vienna in February

February in Vienna: average highs of 8°C, lows of 1°C and 7 hours of sunshine a day. A starting point for planning around the historical weather.

February in Vienna, Austria, brings average daily highs of 8°C and overnight lows of 1°C in the 2016–2025 historical record. Warm layers deserve space in the bag. Keep longer outdoor plans easy to adjust, and allow places to stop between walks so that a colder day does not determine the whole itinerary.

In the record, at least 1 mm of rain or snow falls on 8 of 28 days on average, a daily chance of 28%. Leave some freedom to swap an outdoor day with a sheltered one. There is no need to read the average as a fixed number of lost days; it says nothing about how long rain lasts on each occasion.

The calculated day length, sunrise to sunset, averages about 10 hours. Sunshine averages 7 hours a day. Use the daylight window to plan the length of excursions, and check local sunrise and sunset times for the dates of your stay. Sunshine is a separate measure, and those hours need not arrive in one uninterrupted stretch.

For a culture-focused visit, group the places you want to see into manageable areas, with time between stops. Check each venue's opening dates before fixing the order. If food is a reason for the trip, leave time around meals rather than filling every gap with another journey. Check the places you choose for current opening hours.

March has an average daily high of 12°C, 4°C higher than February. Its historical rain-day chance is 26%, compared with 28% this month. If your dates are flexible, compare those trade-offs with the kind of days you want. Neither set of averages predicts the conditions of one particular holiday.
