Fitzroy Weather

Fitzroy’s weather is mild and changeable. This inner-Melbourne suburb sees warm summers and cool, damp winters, with conditions often shifting quickly due to its proximity to Port Phillip Bay.

What is the typical weather pattern for Fitzroy?

Fitzroy shares its climate with central Melbourne weather, meaning four distinct seasons and frequent low-pressure systems moving in from the Southern Ocean. The live forecast above shows current conditions, but expect afternoon sea breezes in summer and crisp, clear mornings in winter.

• Summer (Dec–Feb): Average highs around 26°C. Hot spells from the north can push temperatures above 35°C, but a bay breeze often cools the suburb by late afternoon.
• Autumn (Mar–May): Stable, mild days (20–24°C). This is often the sunniest season for the area.
• Winter (Jun–Aug): Chilly mornings near 6°C, with daytime highs of 14–15°C. Cold fronts bring rain, though the Otway Ranges can block some showers.
• Spring (Sep–Nov): Unpredictable. Warm north winds can clash with cool southern changes, creating sudden rain or thunderstorms.
