Weather in February

February in Croatia represents the tail end of the winter season, with temperatures starting to rise gradually compared to January but still generally low across the country. Similar to January, the weather varies significantly between the inland regions and the Adriatic coast.

The inland areas, like the cities of Zagreb and Čakovec, still experience cold conditions, but February usually registers slightly warmer temperatures than January. Average temperatures hover between -1°C (30.2°F) and 5°C (41°F), marking the beginning of a slow transition from winter to spring. Čakovec recorded the country's lowest-ever temperature of -35.5°C (-31.9°F) in February, highlighting the potential for severe cold in the more continental areas of Croatia. The snow cover from January often persists into February, particularly in the elevated regions of the Gorski Kotar and Lika.

The Dinaric Alps, including the Velebit and Pljesevica mountain ranges, also experience a gradual increase in temperatures, but they remain well below freezing. The region continues to receive snowfall, though usually less than in January. The cold Bora winds, while still present, begin to lose some of their intensity.

On the Adriatic coast, February is noticeably milder. Cities like Split, Dubrovnik, and the island of Hvar typically experience average temperatures from 8°C (46.4°F) to 13°C (55.4°F). The coastal region starts to see more sunshine in February, indicating the onset of an early spring and a shift from the colder months of December and January. The amount of rainfall decreases slightly in comparison to January, usually falling in the 50mm (1.97") to 80mm (3.15") range.
