What's the weather like in Krakow? It's an important question for the adventurer setting sail for Poland, especially when you bear in mind that the temperatures in Krakow can vary enormously, with minus twenty not uncommon in winter and plus thirty, or more, often registering on the thermometers during summer. Definitely best then to check the weather forecast before you set off! Generally speaking the weather in Krakow remains warm from May to September, and although blue skies and sunshine are the norm, they are frequently broken up by showers and storms - in other words only the imprudent leave a brolly behind! Autumn can be surprisingly mild, with t-shirt weather lasting until October or even November (in what are known as 'Golden Autumns'), but when Big Bad Winter does settle in you'd best be prepared. January and February tend to be the coldest, with hat, thick gloves and socks, and leggings all essential. March and April tend to be on the unpleasant side of cool too, so once again check our Krakow weather forecast above and veer on the safe side.

Hoping it snows although it can be hard to walk in!! However would be good if its frosty/foggy when the christmas market is on as its so atmospheric

reviewed by Andrea from United Kingdom on Nov.22.2011

If you are going to Krakow in late November take some warm clothing - it can be grey, miserable & a little chilly - don't let that put you off. Krakow is a wonderful city - my partner & I are going back again (3rd time this year).
