![]() In Podgorica, summer can be uncomfortably hot, and the temperature can reach 40 ☌ (104 ☏), especially in July and August, so you can choose the months of May and September. We cannot exclude some brief afternoon thunderstorms (as we have said, more rarely than in inland areas). On the coast, summer is a good season for a beach holiday, especially in July and August: the weather is sunny and hot, but tempered by the breeze. The best time to visit Montenegro goes from May to September. The highest peak, Zla Kolata, is located in the south-east at the border with Albania it reaches 2,534 meters (8,314 feet) and is located in the group of the Prokletije (or Albanian Alps), which are part of the Dinaric Alps. In Montenegro, there are mountains exceeding 2,000 meters (6,500 feet). ![]() Here are the average temperatures of Ulcinj, in the southern part of the coast.Ĭontinuing inland, the climate is even colder, so that in the far north, on the border with Serbia (see Bijelo Polje, Pljevlja), at a given altitude, the temperature is similar to that of the Alps, and during the most intense cold waves, the temperature can drop to -25/-30 ☌ (-13/-22 ☏). The Bay of Kotor is sheltered and mild, but in the cold season the temperature drops suddenly when the Bura blows, a cold wind coming from the interior. Typically, this wind does not bring snow, except in the limited areas where cold air manages to penetrate between the mountains. Winter is mild, with average temperatures in January around 9 ☌ (48 ☏), however, cold air masses of Russian origin may reach the coast, bringing a dry, down-slope wind which descends from the mountains and lowers the temperature down to the freezing point or even a little below. On the coast, the climate is mild but rainy in autumn and winter, while in summer it's hot and sunny, though tempered by the breeze. On the contrary, on the coast and in Podgorica, at least rainfall decreases in summer, when thunderstorms are rare. In addition, in inland areas and mountain ranges, additional rainfall occurs in the form of afternoon thunderstorms in late spring and summer (more frequently in May and June). Certain areas of Montenegro receive the highest amounts of rain of the entire European continent (see for example Cetinje). The rainy season is long and runs from September to April sometimes, the rains are torrential. The rains are not very frequent, but when it rains, it rains a lot. ![]() Precipitation in Montenegro is plentiful, especially in the coastal strip and in hilly and mountainous regions overlooking the sea.
