AnyWeather calculated these monthly values from daily ERA5 reanalysis data for 1991-2020, retrieved through the Open-Meteo Historical Weather API. ERA5 is gridded model-and-observation reanalysis, not a reading from a city-center weather station. Coastlines, elevation, urban heat, and local storms can produce meaningful differences.

Paris is often explored on foot, so the useful forecast is the one that covers the full route and return time. Urban heat, limited shade on exposed sites, sudden storms, and cold damp wind can change comfort without changing the day's headline temperature much.
- Walking day
- Compare morning, afternoon, and evening readings, then pack one compact layer or rain option instead of planning from the daily maximum.
- Heat
- Check the overnight low and Météo-France vigilance level, schedule shaded breaks, and avoid assuming that evening will cool quickly.
- Storm or winter day
- Allow transport flexibility during intense rain, wind, snow, or ice and review official instructions before visiting exposed parks or viewpoints.
What to watch
Heatwaves, thunderstorms, flooding rain, wind, snow, and ice are covered by Météo-France's Vigilance system. It is updated at least twice daily and official orange or red instructions should take priority over a general forecast.
