Spring (March to May) is lovely in Cologne, particularly in May with temperatures averaging 13°C (55°F) and the weather is still relatively dry.
Summer (June to August) starts off with plenty of rain so pack a raincoat with you. Temperatures often hover around 23°C (73°F) but highs of 30s°C (80s°F) are getting frequent.
Autumn (September to November) is pleasant and visitors can make the most of beer gardens scattered around the city. The average temperature in September is 15°C (59°F).
Winter (December to February) is mild, but with the sun setting at around 3.30pm, it can feel gloomy. Temperatures hover around 3°C (37°F) in December.
Cologne is famous for its Carnival known as "Fastelovend". In theory, the Carnival starts on November 11th at 11:11am, but the real "Crazy Days" do not start before Shrove Thursday which falls in either February or March. During "Crazy Days", people dress up and participate in balls and parades, singing and dancing. As the city is aswarm with tourists, accommodation is hard to come by and prices are high.
