Aberdeen Weather

The location of Aberdeen may seem daunting from a weather view point, especially with the reputation that the United Kingdom has for poor weather. However, the area is very temperate and mild with an oceanic climate. Here, we will explore the weather in this area in more detail.

The main issue of climate has less to do with the air temperature in Aberdeen as it does with the rotation of the Earth. The days in Aberdeen are very short in the winter months. In December, the average length of the day is a mere six and three quarter hours. However, once the Winter Solstice has passed, the days increase to just below eight and a half hours for the remainder or winter and early spring. This means that the weather is generally poor in the winter months, even though not terrible.

The days are very long in the summer. Sunlight can be seen in Aberdeen for an impressive 16 hours, and nautical twilight lasts the entire evening. Unfortunately, with this being said, the temperature in Aberdeen rarely reaches above 18 degrees Celsius even in the summer days, even though the record high for Aberdeen in the summer was just below 30 degrees centigrade.

Aberdeen has a perfect mild climate year round. To avoid getting too wet, try to miss travelling in October, November, December because these are the most precipitous months. Although the weather is much milder than expected for such a northern lying city, hiring a car is the best way to ensure you stay warm and dry when travelling to Aberdeen. If you are coming from a nearby town or city and are driving into Aberdeen, you can hire a car from a number of UK firms. Make sure you check out Car Rental Aberdeen Airport for the best deals on the internet.

These companies also have various sites set up around the city.
