Check the live forecast above then decide if you need a jacket or sunscreen. Perth’s Mediterranean climate means hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters. Summer highs regularly push past 35°C, while winter days settle around 18°C. Coastal seabreezes keep the city cooler than inland suburbs, so factor that into your plans.
What is the typical pattern for Perth weather?
Perth has two main seasons. From December to February, clear skies dominate and temperatures often exceed 40°C during heatwaves. The “Freo Doctor” afternoon sea breeze can drop the mercury by 5–10°C along the coast. Winter (June–August) brings grey skies, light rain and daytime highs of 16–20°C. Most rain falls between May and August, but totals are modest compared to eastern capitals.
Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable conditions: warm days, cool nights, and low humidity. If you’re looking at a weather perth 14 days outlook, expect consistent weather during summer and more variation in winter.
How does the weather change month to month?
January is the hottest month, averaging 31°C maximum. February is similar, though slightly cooler nights. March stays dry but temperatures start easing. April to May see cooling and the first winter fronts. July is the coolest and wettest month, with around 170 mm of rain. August–September remain showery but days lengthen. October–November warm up again, often with clear, sunny skies.
For planning ahead, a perth weather 10 days forecast is reliable in summer, while longer-range predictions like a 28 day weather forecast perth are best used as a guide rather than a guarantee.
Does Perth get cyclones?
Cyclones rarely hit the Perth city area directly, but tropical lows can bring heavy rain and gusty winds during summer. If a cyclone is brewing in the northwest, check the perth weather cyclone advice from BOM and the Severe Weather Warning page for updates.
How accurate are long‑range forecasts for Perth?
A perth weather 15 days outlook gives a general trend but becomes less reliable after day 7. For planning trips, use a perth weather 14 days forecast for seasonal hints, and check a 7‑day forecast for specific decisions. Monthly projections are useful for broad climate patterns only.
What is the best time to visit Perth?
Spring (September–November) and autumn (March–May) offer the most comfortable weather: warm days, low humidity, and little rain. Summer suits beachgoers but can be very hot. Winter is mild but wet, so if you want to see wildflowers and avoid crowds, spring is ideal.
