It is time to get acquainted. Czech Republic's weather cannot be predicted very far in advance and can vary noticeably from year to year. In general though, your best chance of nice weather is in late spring and early fall.

If you like it hot, you should visit in July and August, Prague's warmest and statistically driest months.
