Climate and Average Weather in Azerbaijan

Nine out of eleven existing climate zones are present in Azerbaijan. The absolute minimum temperature minus 33 degrees Celsius (-27.4 Fahrenheit ) and the absolute maximum temperature 46 degrees Celsius (114.8 Fahrenheit) were observed in Julfa and Ordubad.

The maximum annual precipitation is between 1,600 to 1,800 mm (63 - 70.8 in) in Lankaran and the minimum in Absheron is 200 to 350 mm (7.87 - 13.7 in). As you can see this makes the climate in Azerbaijan very varied.

What is the best time to visit Azerbaijan? Due to the risk of extreme weather, both in summer and winter, spring and autumn is the best travel period. If you travel to the coast, for example to the capital Baku, then summer is also a nice option. The average maximum temperature on the coastal areas is around 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) during summer. Due to the lower relative humidity, it can be very pleasant.
