Weather

The weather in Vienna is typically continental with clearly defined seasons. Because of hot summers peppered with occasional days of rain, and cold winters, the "right" clothing is essential. In general, the temperature in autumn is rather pleasant, still sometimes a fresh gust of wind can chill the air.

October is proper autumn in Vienna, which is not as noticeable in the city as in the surroundings. You can expect some foggy and rainy days, as well as periods of mild weather and sunshine. The average daily temperature hovers around a bearable 14 degrees Celsius at most, and can drop to around 7 degrees at the least. We recommend bringing warm clothing that you can wear in layers – depending on whether you catch a sunny or rainy phase, the temperatures can vary significantly.
