Burdur has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate.
Mild, rainy winters and hot, dry summers — here's what that means in plain terms.
What this climate feels like
The four things a regular visitor actually wants to know:
Highs near 88°F in August. About 25 days a year above 90 °F.
Lows near 28°F in January. About 74 freezing nights a year.
About 20 in of rain a year. Wettest in January.
More sun than cloud through the year.
What "hot-summer Mediterranean" means
Climate scientists sort every place on Earth into about 30 climate types, based on how hot, cold, wet and dry it is across the year. Burdur's type — hot-summer mediterranean — sits in the broad family of mild, temperate climates.
Researchers write climate types as a short letter code. Here is what each letter means:
Cities with the same climate as Burdur
A hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Csa) — these recognizable cities share it. If you know one of them, you know roughly what to expect.
Burdur sits near a climate boundary
This city's climate sits within about 2.2 °C of the next type along. A slightly cooler or warmer decade could change which side of the boundary it lands on — but the lived weather doesn't change at the line.
Has Burdur's climate type changed?
A climate type is a coarse bucket. It can hold steady for years while the weather inside it shifts — or tip into the next bucket.
What this climate means for you
Wine grapes, olives, citrus, figs and rosemary thrive. Summer-active gardens need drip irrigation; cool-season crops do well over winter.
Spring and autumn are the perfect window — warm, dry and clear without summer's heat. Summer is hot but rain-free.
Sunny summers, mild winters and an outdoor lifestyle. Wildfires are the dominant summer risk in many areas.
Where these numbers come from
The climate type and the month-by-month figures on this page are computed from Burdur's measured 30-year climate normals (1991–2020) — the same official records behind Burdur's main climate page, so the two always agree.
Long-range climate maps measure things slightly differently and can place a city in a neighbouring category. Where they differ, this page uses the measured station record as the climate today.
Methodology & sources
Temperature & precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 22 years of daily observations at Isparta, a weather station, about 23 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
