Daytime

This is walking weather. Shade is useful, not essential the way it is in the hot months. A long outdoor day is a reasonable plan.

Rain

August is the wet side of the year in Kaunas. Days can be heavy. Plans that cannot survive rain are the wrong plans.

This is not a reason to skip Kaunas if you like the place. It is a reason to pack for weather and to stop treating every grey hour as a failed holiday.

Evening

Evenings are cooler. A layer helps after sunset.

What to pack

  • Sun protection

  • Rain jacket

  • A layer for cooler evenings
