Georgia Weather in May

Wetter than at any other time of year in most of the region. Kvareli's total is about 130 mm, spread over 13 days, with Telavi close behind at roughly 119 mm, often in heavy afternoon storms, while Sighnaghi sees about 95 mm. Days are warm, about 23-24 °C (73-75 °F), so showers pass quickly and the Alazani Valley looks its greenest. Keep cellar visits for the wettest hours.

Yes, by about three degrees. Ureki, on the Guria coast north of Kobuleti, averages about 23 °C (73 °F) in the afternoon, while Batumi stays near 20 °C (68 °F). Nights are similar, around 13 °C. The sea is the same at both, about 17 °C (63 °F), so either one suits sunbathing and a quick dip rather than long swims.

Wet and quiet. The ski season is over, and May is Gudauri's rainiest month, with about 196 mm over 19 days. Days reach about 12 °C (54 °F) and nights hover near 2 °C (36 °F), so snow still covers the upper slopes. This month it works as a stop on the way to Kazbegi rather than a destination in itself.

Yes, one of the best. Kutaisi averages about 24 °C (75 °F) by day and 14 °C (57 °F) at night, with around 9 rainy days and about 85 mm of rain. Rivers are high after the spring melt, which makes Martvili and Okatse canyons and the waterfalls of Samegrelo look their fullest. Bring shoes that cope with wet paths.
