Udine sits in the far northeast of Italy, 40 km from the Adriatic coast and backed by the Julian Alps, which gives it a humid subtropical climate with sharp seasonal swings. Winters are cold with occasional snow, summers are hot and sticky, and rain falls in every month for an annual total of about 1,300 mm. January averages 8°C (46°F) by day and -1°C (30°F) at night, while July and August both reach 29°C (84°F). Use this Udine weather by month guide to plan what to pack each month, then check the best time to visit Udine to pick your dates.
Udine Weather in Winter (December to February)
Winter is cold and grey. December averages 9°C (48°F) by day and 1°C (34°F) at night with 93 mm of rain, while January is the coldest month at 8°C (46°F) high and -1°C (30°F) low with 70 mm. Udine records about 64 cm of snow a year, most of it falling between December and February, though snow rarely stays on the ground in the city centre for more than a few days. Expect fog in the morning and short days with only 8 to 9 hours of daylight in December. Pack a waterproof coat, hat and gloves, and bring layers for heated indoor spaces. See our Udine travel guide for more detail.
Udine Weather in Spring (March to May)
Spring warms up quickly but stays unsettled. March averages 14°C (57°F) by day and 3°C (37°F) at night with 69 mm, the driest month of the year, and by May the daytime high climbs to 22°C (72°F) with 106 mm of rain. April and May bring the most changeable conditions, with bright sunny mornings turning to afternoon showers, so a compact umbrella is essential. This is one of the best seasons for walking the historic centre, with clear views to the Alps on dry days and temperatures comfortable enough for a light jacket from late April. See our events and festivals guide for more detail.
Udine Weather in Summer (June to August)
Summer is hot and humid. June already averages 28°C (82°F) by day, and July and August both peak at 29°C (84°F) with overnight lows around 17°C (63°F). Humidity from the Adriatic makes it feel warmer, and roughly 45 days a year top 30°C (86°F), most of them in July and August. Rainfall drops to 81 mm in June and 86 mm in July before climbing again in August at 95 mm, often as heavy late-afternoon thunderstorms. Book accommodation with air conditioning, carry water, and plan museum visits for the middle of the day when the sun is strongest. See our neighborhoods guide for more detail.
Udine Weather in Autumn (September to November)
Autumn starts warm and turns wet. September still averages 24°C (75°F) by day with 115 mm of rain, and October cools to 19°C (66°F) with 104 mm. November is the wettest month of the year at 143 mm, with a high of only 14°C (57°F) and 5°C (41°F) at night. September and early October are ideal for wine tasting in the Collio hills and for Friuli DOC, while late October brings vivid foliage and a steady increase in rain. A waterproof jacket and closed shoes are essential from October onward. See our travel tips guide for more detail.
