About Temperatures.com
Temperatures.com exists to answer one deceptively simple question - what's the temperature? - better than anyone else, wherever and however you ask it.
For every city we cover, you get live conditions, an hour-by-hour outlook, a full 14-day forecast, air quality, and sunrise, sunset and moon times. What makes us different is the layer underneath: every city page also carries real monthly climate averages computed from ten years (2015–2024) of weather data - so you can tell whether today's reading is normal, remarkable, or record-adjacent, and plan trips months ahead with confidence.
Temperatures.com by the numbers
- 496 cities across 198 countries, each with live conditions and forecasts
- 10 years (2015–2024) of daily weather history behind every climate average
- 19 practical guides, 12 converters and 5 weather tools for the temperatures of daily life
How our city pages are written
We should be plain about this, because it is a fair question to ask of any site that covers hundreds of places. The prose on a city page is generated from that city's own measurements by software we wrote, not typed out one city at a time and not produced by a language model. Every figure in it - the hottest month, the wet season, the day-to-night gap, the ranking against the rest of our dataset - is computed from that city's ten-year daily record, so if the text says January is the coldest month, January is the coldest month in the data.
What that approach cannot do is tell you what a place feels like to live in, and we don't pretend otherwise. Where we make judgements rather than measurements - our guides, in particular - a person writes them, against the primary sources cited at the foot of each one.
Where the data comes from
Live observations and forecasts are provided by WeatherAPI.com, refreshed throughout the day. Historical climate normals are aggregated from the ERA5 reanalysis dataset published via Open-Meteo - the same family of data used in climate research. The full pipeline is documented on our methodology page. Rankings like our hottest cities and coldest cities pages compare the latest observation across every covered city.
Beyond the forecast
Temperature matters indoors too. Our guides cover the numbers people actually look up - fever thresholds, safe cooking temperatures, ideal room and refrigerator settings, heat index and wind chill - and our converters move between Celsius, Fahrenheit and Kelvin instantly.
