Climatic conditions in January are far from ideal, due to the high humidity that accompanies cool temperatures. The few hours of sunshine still allow to enjoy beautiful sunsets, to relax in one of the most romantic cities in the world - despite the mediocre weather in Amsterdam throughout January.
Amsterdam at the Beginning of January
The first days of January are characterized by the alternation of clouds, nice weather and a few rainy episodes. To this are added rather low temperatures which make the wearing of warm clothes indispensable. While at nightfall, weather conditions can even favor snowfall.
Amsterdam in the Middle of January
The middle of the month corresponds to the coolest and wettest period of January. This means that despite a few sunny days, one should also expect a lot of rainy days - as slight showers often give way to relatively intense rains.
Amsterdam at the End of January
As the climatic conditions are identical to those of the beginning of the month, the climate throughout January in Amsterdam at the end of the month is not very good. In addition to the already cool temperatures, the dawn is often favorable to snowfall - while the daytime environments observe quite a few showers.
