| March | 34–44°F | 12h | High (200mm) | Off-Peak | Winter loosening its grip with longer days, swelling waterfalls and few crowds. |
| April | 39–52°F | 14h | High (140mm) | Shoulder | Fresh green and cascading meltwater as the fjord country wakes up. |
| May | 45–59°F | 17h | High (110mm) | Shoulder | Peak blossom and near-endless light, arguably the fjords' finest month. |
| June | 50–64°F | 19h | High (135mm) | Peak | Long luminous days and green fjords with the cruise season in full swing. |
| July | 55–67°F | 18h | High (155mm) | Peak | Warm-ish, bright and lively in the year's busiest, sunniest fjord weeks. |
| August | 54–67°F | 15h | High (210mm) | Peak | Late-summer greens, ripe cherries and still-long evenings before the rains return. |
| September | 50–61°F | 13h | Very High (245mm) | Shoulder | Autumn colours, dramatic misty fjords and thinning summer crowds. |
| October | 43–53°F | 10h | Very High (270mm) | Off-Peak | Golden birches, big skies and moody rain, proper hygge-in-Bergen season. |
| November | 37–46°F | 7h | Very High (270mm) | Off-Peak | Dark, drenched and dramatic, Bergen at its most atmospheric and cheapest. |
| December | 34–41°F | 6h | Very High (290mm) | Off-Peak | Fairy-lit and festive as Pepperkakebyen and Christmas markets glow. |
