Stockholm weather at a glance

• Stockholm is a Nordic Baltic city near water and islands, so **wind and perceived temperature** can change quickly—waterfront areas often feel colder.
• Winter (Dec–Feb) is long, cold, and darker, with snow/ice and occasional sleet; waterproof traction footwear is high value.
• Spring (Mar–May) warms slowly. By April/May, walking comfort improves, but wind and day–night swings still call for layering.
• Summer (Jun–Aug) is mild to warm and great for outdoor and archipelago plans, though evenings can feel cool with breeze.
• Autumn (Sep–Nov) starts comfortable in September, then turns windier, wetter, and darker into November.
