Late January and early February fall in the middle of Melbourne’s summer. According to Tourism Australia, summer temperatures in Melbourne generally range between 14–25.3 °C (57–77 °F), but January and February often see the city’s warmest days, with highs occasionally soaring above 30 °C (86 °F). Historical data show that average highs are around 26–28 °C (78–82 °F) and average lows around 14–16 °C (58–60 °F). It’s usually dry but heatwaves can occur, so be prepared for hot days as well as cooler breezy evenings. We recommend bringing light summer clothing, sun protection and a light jacket for the evenings.
