North Melbourne is currently experiencing the conditions shown in the live forecast above. The suburb lies 2 kilometres north-west of the Melbourne CBD, so its weather follows the city’s temperate pattern: warm summers and cool, damp winters with moderate rainfall spread year-round.
What is the typical climate in North Melbourne?
North Melbourne shares Melbourne’s oceanic climate (Köppen Cfb). Summer maximums average 26°C, with occasional hot northerly winds pushing temperatures above 40°C. Winter minimums hover around 6°C, and rainfall is fairly even – about 600 millimetres annually. The suburb is sheltered by the Great Dividing Range to the north, so extreme cold snaps are rare but foggy mornings are common from May to August. For a wider look at the city, see the Melbourne weather page.
How does North Melbourne weather compare with other suburbs?
Because it’s close to the city centre, North Melbourne misses some of the cooling sea breezes that affect bayside suburbs. It is slightly warmer overnight than outer northern suburbs such as Epping.
