WEATHER

In late September/early October, the weather in Antwerp is typically mild and autumnal. Average daytime temperatures range from 12°C to 17°C (54°F to 63°F), while nights can be cooler, around 7°C to 10°C (45°F to 50°F).

Rain is quite common during this time of year, with frequent light showers and overcast skies, so bringing a waterproof jacket or umbrella is advisable. The city begins to display autumn colors, making it a pleasant—if occasionally damp—time to visit.
