Weather and Clothing in Glasgow 
IFLA 2002 

By

August is the warmest month of the year in Glasgow and Scotland. The
weather should be pleasant and warm but, as in all temperate climate
countries, is not guaranteed! The average daily maximum temperature is 19
degrees centigrade; a typical days weather is sunny, with the occasional
light shower. Extremes of weather are rare in Glasgow and Scotland,
especially during August. 
Pack some warmer clothes and rainwear. As is
annually evident from the number of red and white people, the sun can be
fairly strong on a hot day; suntan lotion can be purchased in a number of
shops. The Registration package gives you a 6 day pass for free unlimited travel
by train, bus and underground in the Glasgow area.

Additionally, with the generous sponsorship of OCLC, an IFLA 2002 Welcome
Desk will operate at Glasgow International on Friday 16 and Sunday 18
August - with regular coaches to all official IFLA 2002 accommodation hotels.
