Hiya,

Was in Prague at the end of February two years ago. Was very cold alright with lots of snow. So much snow fell on the last day of our trip that the airport had to close and our flights were cancelled. So after hours waiting around in the airport trying to find out what was going on, had to make our way back into the city and find a hotel for the night (all out of our own pockets)!
But it is a beautiful city. I'm sure we were just unlucky with getting hit with so much snow. Just wear lots of layers - Enjoy!

I was there Feb two years ago too. I didn't find it much colder than winter here tbh. It was snowing a bit when we were there, so you'll want something waterproof aswell as warm.

Don't forget some nice t-shirts though, the cafes, bars and hotels are all toasty warm!

Hi,

I was there Feb two years ago did nt see any snow at all! weather was a bit colder than here certainly so get the old scarf and gloves on !

The city actually looks extra beautiful in the snow. So you should consider yourself lucky if you get some.

Prague can be pretty cold though and it's very dry cold too. Be sure to bring some petroleum jelly as your lips will chafe.

It will be cold and possibly snowing.. Like Dubguy, i was there in Feb about 2 years ago.. or was it 3... anyway it was cold as hell and snowing... however... Prague is very VERY Dry!! The air i mean. So when its cold here its also moist and its the moisture that makes it worse... so when you are somewhere like Prague where its technically a lot colder... its not so bad as its a dry cold. You might want some lip balm.. i find my lips dry out when im there.

Went there this year in February and repeating what everyone else has said - so very cold. Still really nice plus a little easier to do everything without the usual throng of tourists.
