What's the Weather Like in Vienna in September

September is the last month of the year to enjoy comfortably warm temperatures in Vienna, temperatures that allow you to walk around in a T-shirt in the afternoon and sweater or light jacket at night. It marks the end of the summer season in the city and in Austria in general, a season that was very sunny and warm. September, although it is slightly cooler, has the big advantage that it is much quieter than the two peak summer months of July and August. There are fewer tourists, but the weather is definitely still good enough to spend your days outside, walking from, say, museum to museum.

Temperature

The average temperature in Vienna in September is 15°C, which is already four degrees fewer than it was in August, but still also five degrees more than it will be in October. In the afternoons, the mercury climbs to a still comfortable 19°C high, but at night, it drops to a chillier low temperature of 10°C. If you're visiting Vienna in September, make sure to bring a jacket. Both these high and low temperatures fall significantly in the course of the month, though. The first weeks of September are undoubtedly the best time of the month to visit. The average high temperature decreases from 23°C to 18°C, while the average low drops from 13°C to 10°C.

These temperatures aren't the only things that drop in September; the length of the days does too. With 13.22 hours of daylight, September 1 is the longest day of the month. September 30, with 11.42 daylight hours left, is the shortest day. This implies that every September day is 3.3 minutes shorter than the day before.

Sunshine Hours

When you consider the drastic increase in cloud cover as wellt increases from 49% to 61% in the course of Septemberou know that it will be much less sunny this month, compared with the sun-soaked summer months. And indeed, September has 9 hours of sunshine per day on average, which is a two-hour decrease since the three previous months. Still, this is not bad for an autumn month and is still more than some places in northern Europe see at the peak of summer!

Rainfall 

Surprisingly, the increase in cloud cover doesn't bring with it more rainfall. Rather the contrary, the total amount of rainfall in September is lower than in August5mm compared with 58mm. There are also only 10 days with precipitation in September, which is by far the lowest number of any month. The chance that rainfall occurs ranges around 45% this month and is also the lowest of the entire year. There is one main type of rainfall: moderate rain. This is observed on 62% of the days with rainfall.

Thunderstorms

Light rain and thunderstorms may occasionally occur as well, but are much less likely, respectively occurring on 18% and 14% of the rainy days. For a detailed weather forecast, please visit this weather forecast page.
