March weather forecast

Rainfall in March tends to increase compared to February, but it is distributed relatively evenly, without heavy downpours.

In contrast, the high-altitude regions, particularly those under the influence of the Tundra climate, remain relatively colder. Cities in the Greater Caucasus range, such as Quba and Khinalug, witness temperatures slowly moving above freezing, averaging 0°C (32°F) to 2°C (35.6°F). However, snowfall continues in these areas, albeit at a reduced rate compared to the winter months.

Despite the presence of cooler temperatures, particularly in the mountainous regions, the increasing warmth and longer daylight hours of March signal the arrival of spring in Azerbaijan.
