Weather in Copenhagen in February
February in Copenhagen is a coat month. Treat it as cities, food and short walks, not as a terrace holiday.
In Denmark, this is how Copenhagen actually wears February, not how a country centroid would. Compared with July and January, February sits in the middle of Copenhagen's year.

Outdoor time is the middle of the day. Finish plans before the light goes. Evenings are for indoors.
Rain
February is on the drier side of the year in Copenhagen. Showers are possible. They do not define the month.
A shell that lives in the bag is enough. This is not August, and it should not be packed as if it were.
