May weather forecast
Romania

May ushers in a transitional period in Romania as the country moves from spring towards the early onset of summer. It is a month of rapidly rising temperatures and increasingly longer days, with nature in full bloom across the country.

In Bucharest, temperatures in May generally range from 12°C (53.6°F) to 24°C (75.2°F), and the city basks in the warmth of late spring. The city's parks are lush and vibrant, offering ideal conditions for leisurely strolls and outdoor activities.

In the Transylvanian region, Brasov sees temperatures fluctuating between 7°C (44.6°F) and 19°C (66.2°F). The city and its surrounding countryside are decked in a myriad of colours, with flowering plants and trees dotting the landscape.

Cluj-Napoca in the northwest experiences similar weather, with temperatures varying from 8°C (46.4°F) to 20°C (68°F). As in other parts of the country, the city's public spaces and gardens are alive with colour and activity.

The coastal city of Constanta, with temperatures ranging between 11°C (51.8°F) and 19°C (66.2°F), begins to see the influx of tourists. Although the water of the Black Sea is still relatively chilly, the weather is generally pleasant, and the beaches begin to come alive.

In comparison to April, May experiences a substantial increase in temperature, making it considerably warmer and sunnier. However, it is still slightly cooler than June when the full force of summer sets in.

May sees an average precipitation ranging from 50mm (1.97") to 70mm (2.76"), distributed across rainfall and, in higher altitudes, some remaining snowfall. These showers contribute to the overall lushness of the landscapes, and it is not unusual to see rainbows gracing the skies after a brief downpour.
