Paris sits under maritime skies in France, and the 2015–2024 weather record gives its sunshine a clear shape: the July peak reaches a 95/100 sun score, with daytime highs around 26°C — a solid base for a city break.

The year runs from average lows of 2°C in January to highs of 26°C in July. The wet–dry contrast is modest: 41% rain-day odds in March against 29% in July. If 24°C is your bar for proper warmth, count on July–August.

Season by season (on the northern calendar), spring brings 16°C highs with 37% rain-day odds, summer 25°C at 33%, autumn 17°C at 36%, and winter 9°C at 40%. That makes summer the statistical sweet spot (season score 94), with spring a workable second; winter is where the odds thin out.

Best months to visit Paris

Ranked purely on sunshine odds, the podium is July at 95/100, then June at 94 and August at 92. The dependable window is wider than the podium, though: April–September all score 70 or better. The month to avoid on pure weather odds is January (41/100).

Put against its 73 ocean peers in July, it lands in the sunnier half of the group, ahead of 52% of them.
