Gothenburg's Climate

Gothenburg sits on Sweden's west coast along the Kattegat strait of the North Sea, giving it a cool, damp and windy oceanic climate moderated by the sea year-round. Winters (December–February) are far milder than inland Sweden, usually 0–4°C, with some snow and ice but rarely harsh, while summers (June–August) are mild at 18–22°C with very long days yet plenty of cloud and rain. Precipitation falls throughout the year, peaking in late summer and autumn, often with strong Atlantic winds.
