The weather for the week of December 8 to 14, 2025, is expected to be particularly mild in Paris and the Île-de-France region, with unusually high temperatures for the season. Temperatures will climb between 5°C and 15°C depending on the day, with pleasant mild weather at the beginning of the week that contrasts with the usual winter standards. We will enjoy this mild spell before conditions gradually return to more seasonal norms.
Monday, December 8, 2025, kicks off the week with exceptionally mild weather, with temperatures ranging between 57°F and 63°F. The sky will remain very cloudy with a few drops or showers possible, but it is the unusual warmth that will make the biggest impression. The southwesterly wind will blow strongly, with gusts of up to 30 mph. It will be an ideal day to enjoy the Christmas markets that enliven the capital, although it would be wise to keep an umbrella handy.
On Tuesday, December 9, the mild weather will continue with temperatures between 9°C and 15°C. The weather will be fairly bright despite a thick cloud cover, before the clouds become more invasive in the evening and overnight. This is the perfect opportunity to stroll along the banks of the Seine or discover new exhibitions in Parisian museums. This remarkable mildness is due to a southerly flow bringing warm air to the region.
Wednesday, December 10, marks a slight change with overcast skies and lots of clouds. Temperatures will range from 9°C to 14°C, still well above seasonal norms. A few drops or a shower are still possible, with about 1 millimeter of precipitation. The south wind will weaken, creating a calmer atmosphere. We can explore the covered passages of Paris or enjoy an afternoon of shopping in the department stores.
On Thursday, December 11, the weather will become gloomier with overcast skies and light rain. Temperatures will drop slightly to between 8°C and 11°C, marking a gradual return to more seasonal values. The southeast wind will remain light. This is a perfect day to explore the museums of the Paris region, such as the Louvre or the Musée d'Orsay, or to take refuge in the capital's cinemas. This more typically wintry weather reminds us that we are indeed in December.
Friday, December 12, will see an improvement with partly cloudy skies. Temperatures will remain mild, between 46°F and 54°F, allowing you to enjoy outdoor activities. The skies will clear up and we'll finally see some sunshine. Take the opportunity to stroll through the Parisian gardens or visit the exhibitions in the Marais galleries. This break in the weather is welcome after the previous gray days.
Saturday, December 13 continues this pleasant trend with partly cloudy skies. Temperatures will range between 46°F and 54°F, providing decent conditions for weekend outings. You can plan a stroll through the capital's neighborhoods, discover the Christmas window displays in the department stores, or enjoy the cultural events that enliven Paris and its region.

This week, from December 8 to 14, 2025, in Paris and the Île-de-France region, will therefore be particularly contrasting, with exceptionally mild weather at the beginning of the week, which is surprising for the month of December.
