Nagoya weather by month
2006-2025, 20 years of records · Not a forecast
Nagoya lies on a Pacific-side plain, so winters are mostly sunny. Heavy snow falls in the northern mountains, while the city gets little. The rainy season runs from early June to mid July, followed by a hot, humid summer. July and September are the wettest months, so an umbrella earns its keep. In September the autumn rain front and typhoons overlap, so leave slack in Shinkansen plans. October is clear and mild and the best month for travel. Many people fit it in as a stop between Tokyo and Osaka.
On the record, May and October were the most forgiving months for visiting Nagoya, judged on warmth and rain together. The wet and dry seasons were distinct: rain days bottomed out in January (5) and peaked in July (13).
