Weather in February...

What is the weather normally like in February in Munich? Should I bring snow boots or shoes? We will also be traveling to Salzburg, so any advice on what to pack would be great!!

Danke!!

Well, no open shoes, that%26#39;s certianly... but snow boots is maybe a bit too much. ND is somewhere in the midwest, right? I think it will get much much colder where you live than in Munich. Pack for temperatures between -10 and +10 degrees... (It can also rain of course)

I was in Munich in Feb 2003 and it was freezing. Snow on the ground, etc. It didn%26#39;t snow or rain whilst we were there but it certainly was cold. Like a fool i didn%26#39;t take any gloves with me, and only one coat, but a jumper and t-shirt underneath was sufficient.

Just get plenty of beer in you and you%26#39;ll be grand. :o)

Usually cold. If wet or frozen depends of course on the actual temperature. Being 520 meter above sea level, it´s a bit colder than the lower Germany.

Average minimum is -3°, maximum +2°Celsius.

Average rainfall reaches it´s maximum in february: 45mm, quite much for Germany and due to the proximity of the Alps.

So snow is not unlikely, i´d give it a 65% probability.

Watertight snowboots might be a good idea.

Have a nice trip

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the info! I%26#39;ll just be sure to bring water repellent shoes and jacket. Whatever the weather may be, it will definitely be warmer than Grand Forks, North Dakota!

Last year there was snow on the ground from about mid-January through March if not April. I think it was the worst in about 5 years though. They%26#39;ve got plowing the streets and sidewalks down to a science of course, but bring decent, warm, waterproof boots.
