Glasgow’s climate

Scotland, United Kingdom · 55.86°N, 4.25°W · Europe/London

Glasgow's mild climate is shaped by the Atlantic, with highs averaging about 6°C in January and 19°C in July and lows near 1°C and 11°C. The nearby sea keeps both cold snaps and heatwaves short, so temperatures rarely stray far from these figures.

On calm, clear nights the city centre can be around 3°C warmer than the surrounding countryside, and snow falls on the nearby hills more often than in the city itself. Heat above 25°C is uncommon.

Switch between daily, weekly, monthly and yearly views to compare a single date, a rolling week or month, or a full year. Dates are resolved in Glasgow's own timezone (Europe/London), not yours.
