Climate
What the weather is like in Victoria
Ten year average, 2016–2025.
- Average temperature
- 10.5°C
- Daily mean across the year.
- Yearly precipitation
- 863 mm
- On the drier side for BC.
- Yearly snowfall

- Snow is the exception here.
- Bright sunshine

- Hours of sun a year, 1981–2010 average.
Averaged from the last ten complete years of Environment Canada observations at the nearest principal station, so it reflects the climate as it is now rather than a thirty year normal. Bright sunshine is the exception: it is no longer measured at these stations, so that figure is the long term average.
