The summers are long, hot and relatively dry with low humidity. Skopje's average July high is {{cvt|31|°C|0}}. On average Skopje sees 88 days above {{cvt|30|°C|0}} each year, and 10.2 days above {{cvt|35.0|°C|0}} every year. Winters are short, relatively cold and wet. Snowfalls are common in the winter period, but heavy snow accumulation is rare and the snowcover lasts only for a few hours or a few days if heavy. In summer, temperatures are usually above {{cvt|31|°C|0}} and sometimes above {{cvt|40|°C|0}}. In spring and autumn, the temperatures range from {{cvt|15|to|24|C|F|0}}. In winter, the day temperatures are roughly in the range from {{cvt|5-10|°C|0}}, but at nights they often fall below {{cvt|0|°C|0}} and sometimes below {{cvt|-10|°C|0}}. Typically, temperatures throughout one year range from −13&nbsp;°C to 39&nbsp;°C.
