Lisbon's location on the westernmost side of [[continental Europe]] makes it much less vulnerable to both heatwaves and coldwaves, though outbrakes of the [[Saharan Air Layer]] can sometimes push the temperatures above {{convert|40|C}} as it happened as part of the [[2018 European heat wave]], skies were a shade of white due to the extreme concentrations of airborne dust particles. Temperatures in two of Lisbon's stations reached an all-time high of {{convert|44.0|°C|°F|abbr=on}} on 4 August of that same year.

== Precipitation ==
Lisbon can be described both as a moist and a dry city depending on the season of the year. Precipitation is most common in Autumn and Winter
Lisbon has on average 112 precipitation days a year of which around 30% is drizzle (below {{convert|1|mm|abbr=on}}). The driest months, July and August, have on average two days of precipitation ({{convert|4|-|6|mm|abbr=on}} of which 50% is drizzle), and the wettest months, November and December, have on average 12–15 days of precipitation and around {{convert|127|mm|abbr=on}}.<ref name="HKO"/> December is the rainiest month of which half the days receive some form of precipitation.

Lisbon is a sunny city, in fact, it is one of the sunniest capital
In the Lisbon area, sunshine hours reach their maximum value in the southwestern [[Setúbal Peninsula]] (near [[Cabo Espichel]]), and their lowest in the [[Sintra Mountains]] and parts of the northwest [[Lisbon District|District]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Solar prospecting tool for fast and reliable project pre-feasibility |url=https://apps.solargis.com/prospect/map?show-registration=1 |publisher=[[Solaris (operating system)|SolarGis]] |access-date=30 January 2021}}</ref>

== Daylight ==
Due to its southern position in Europe, Lisbon has a rather optimal number of hours of daylight. Winter days are not as short as in the northern part of the continent and summers have at least 9 hours of nighttime.
