Czech Republic weather overview

The Czech Republic is a hilly, landlocked state lying in Central Europe. Its central position brings a mixed climate influenced both by the mild, wet weather of Atlantic Europe and the hot summers and icy winters of Russia. As a result, summers are warm but rainy and prone to disturbances blowing in from the northern Mediterranean.

Winters are cold and wet, particularly on high ground where heavy snows linger for up to four months. An occasional spell of settled winter weather can bring a run of cold but crisp, bright days. However, life gets hard when easterly winds howl in from Russia bringing severe cold snaps.

What to pack for Czech Republic weather

Wrap up very warmly for a winter visit and supplement lighter clothing with warm cover-ups even in summer. Rainwear is advisable.
