Practical weather notes for Beirut

Beirut has a Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, but its position on a narrow coastal strip below Mount Lebanon means weather can vary noticeably within a short distance: the mountains just inland see far more rain and even snow in winter while the city itself stays mild.

Seasons in Beirut

Summers are warm and humid near the coast, without the drier heat felt further inland, while most of the year's rain falls between November and March, often in concentrated spells rather than spread evenly through the winter. Spring and autumn are generally mild and considered the most comfortable seasons for exploring the city on foot.

Frequently asked questions

How often is the forecast updated?
The live weather data refreshes several times a day, so you're always seeing the latest forecast for Beirut.

Is the 14-day forecast reliable?
The first few days are usually the most accurate. Further ahead, the forecast mainly shows a trend rather than the exact weather at a specific hour.

What should I check before heading outside?
Look at the combination of rain, wind and feels-like temperature. A short trip can handle a passing shower, but a longer walk or bike ride benefits from a more stable stretch of weather.
